A BENEFIT SCREENING FOR U.S. BORDER PATROL AGENTS IGNACIO RAMOS AND JOSE COMPEAN

HOSTED BY JOHN AND KEN OF KFI RADIO

BORDER

 A POWERFUL FEATURE-LENGTH DOCUMENTARY

FROM FILMMAKER CHRIS BURGARD

BORDER takes a firsthand look at the real human consequences of America’s failure to secure its borders, unleashing a haunting, inside portrait of what has arguably become a war zone of illegal immigration, drug smuggling, sex trafficking, Mexican military incursions and more. From the mouths of besieged ranchers, local law enforcement, the Minutemen, the ACLU, political leaders and illegal immigrants themselves, comes a searing portrait that does not flinch from the truth. This is a front row seat on a failed policy gone completely out of control.
