Green Border (DIFF)

In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the ‘green border’ between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa trying to reach the European Union are trapped in a geopolitical crisis cynically engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. Pawns in this hidden war, the lives of Julia, a newly minted activist, Jan, a young border guard, and a Syrian family intertwine. 30 years after EUROPA EUROPA, three-time Oscar Nominee Agnieszka Holland’s poignant new feature opens our eyes, speaks to the heart, and challenges us to reflect on the moral choices that fall to ordinary people every day.
