In Moonland portrays the journeys of three generations of the same family: a man attempting to piece together the mystery of his father’s apparent suicide; his father as a youth, seeking transcendence at the ashram of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh; and his granddaughter, decades later travelling to visit her estranged father. Allinson encapsulates a kind of generational claustrophobia: the idea of being stuck with our demons, despite our best intentions and attempts to escape. We either learn to live with them or unmoor ourselves from our and others’ expectations entirely.
