From the Rim
A combined narrative of 100+ family vacations to the Grand Canyon. Every visitor arrives with preconceived notions about the natural “wonder” gleaned from images of the canyon. In turn, visitors reconcile those preconceptions with the reality of the view from the rim. We see these moments on video with varied response; from life-changing revelations to total indifference.
