美、墨接壤處的土地,佇立著由十八英尺高的粗硬鐵欄杆築起的「國界」,將原本居住於同一區域的人們一分為二,更形成兩家親友隔著欄杆「聚會」的奇異景象。導演以單一鏡頭,精準捕捉受柵欄影響的芸芸眾生相貌。這巨大的、違反人性的柵欄,分隔的究竟是人民,亦或是國家主義下不願給予的自由?

 

The freedom of the West ends at the heavily guarded Mexican border. The Mexican and American governments produce TV ads and internet clips designed to deter Mexicans from even attempting to cross the border and to raise awareness of the dangers that are involved if they do. Gabriela Monroy, a Mexican resident in the USA, in turn produces anti-clips: this film captures in a single shot that the entire tragedy implicit in this situation for so many people. The massive, inhumane fence, clearly reminiscent of Germany’s former internal border, is a potent reminder also of Reagan’s plea in 1987: “Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
