This shot obviously shows the viewers the main characters heading towards a sand storm. The use of the extreme wide shot in this film emphasises how big the sandstorm is compared to the characters heading towards it. It also gives the viewers the sense that the characters are trapped due to the fact that in the shot the sand is surrounding them. Not only is it towering in front of them, it fills the sky and closes in on them. This makes the characters feel small and insignificant compared to the storm they are heading into.
