This award-winning documentary is an expose of problems occurring on the U.S.-Mexico border. BORDER provides real events covered by the documentartians along with additional data and footage to provide an understanding of the extent and magnitude of the issues. The film unveils how people on both sides of the border are being victimized by politicians, corporations, and drug cartels. The blatent disregard and denial from national leaders are clearly presented.

BORDER examines how border security affects the country on many different levels: immigration, economics, education. But, the primary focus is on the danger that is created by an unsecure border — to both the citizens of this country and the people who want to come into the country.

BORDER features interviews with Minutemen Civil Defense Corp founder Chris Simcox, ACLU representative Ray Ybarra, California Representative Dana Rohrbacher, Human Rights activist Isabella Garcia, Victor Davis Hanson, author of Mexifornia, Colorado representative Tom Tancredo, sisters who came across the Border illegally, a young man who made his way through the desert, ranch owners, volunteers of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps, an Arizona hospital administrator and an informed DC insider who wished to remain anonymous.
