Border
Film Project is made of three friends - a
Rhodes Scholar, filmmaker, and a Wall Street analyst
- who spent three months on the U.S. Mexico border
filming and distributing hundreds of disposable cameras
to two groups on different sides of the line: undocumented
migrants crossing the desert and Minutemen volunteers
trying to stop them. To simplify the complexities
of immigration and the U.S.-Mexico border, and to
show the realities on the ground. To date, we have
received more than 1,500 photographs and more continue
to arrive everyday. The pictures speak for themselves.
They capture the humanity present on both sides of
the border. They tell stories that no news piece
or policy debate or academic study could convey.
They are non-partisan and inclusive.
