La Frontera Infinita

Here's another one of my favourites from Berlin that is currently doing the festival rounds. Directed by Juan Manuel Sepúlveda, La Frontera Infinita a beautifully paced,  powerful documentary about people attempting to get to the Mexico-US border. Rather than take us on a literal journey, the film hovers in certain points along a train line, and witnesses the passing through of hundreds and hundreds of people. We're often unsure where we are along the route, but this is the wonder of the film - it's like the whole journey is folded into a single location, and that location is a loop.

And the film is playing in April at HOT DOCS in Toronto
