BORDERLAND | THE LINE WITHIN

Tuesday, September 17, 5:45 p.m. | The United States border is not just a geographic location; it has become a political weapon. “The border” has become shorthand in America, often followed by “crisis,” “humanitarian disaster,” and, regrettably, “invasion.” The literal and figurative border also lies within every undocumented immigrant family; at any moment they can be captured, incarcerated, and deported, their lives destroyed. BORDERLAND | THE LINE WITHIN exposes the profitable business of immigration and its human cost, weaving together the stories of immigrant heroines and heroes resisting and showing a way forward, intent on building a movement in the shadow of the border industrial complex, recognizing the human rights of all. Dialogue: Directors Pamela Yates, Paco de Onis in attendance.
