Deserted: A Conspiracy Unfolds
The fourth and final scene of Deserted is somewhat embroiled in controversy. At first glance it seems to portray yet another American desert location. In interacting with the scene, however, it becomes clear that it is in fact the lunar landscape of the Apollo 11 moon landing.Upon closer inspection, various anomalous artifices are discovered that lead one to question the depicted landscape. Playing upon the question of whether NASA's astronauts really did land on the moon, a number of key 'pieces of evidence' from the conspiracy theorists can be uncovered within the otherwise hyperrealistic scene.
