Details
The seemingly quiet and largely indigenous town of El Alberto is becoming a ghost town, as many have suffered the loss of loved ones who died trying to enter or can’t return from the US.
To survive this, they start simulating an experience they all know: crossing the border to the US illegally. The residents of the village slip into the roles of border guards, human traffickers, and narcos to reenact the crossing for paying tourists so they can put themselves into the shoes of a migrant for one night.
But is this a story of empowerment or are people stuck in a loop of their traumatic experiences?
Playing as part of the London Migration Film Festival.
