Set on the border of Belarus and Poland, Green Border is an urgent and essential drama that delves into the humanitarian emergency of refugees attempting to enter Europe. Sobering and profoundly moving, this tour-de-force is an unflinching critique of intolerance and exclusion.
Intertwining stories from all angles of the crisis – refugees, those who police the border and activists – Green Border exposes the complexities of migration, politics and the absence of compassion. Gripping and brimming with humanity, it is no wonder it won the Venice Film Festival’s Special Jury Prize.
Directed by renowned Polish filmmaker Agnieszka Holland, who was demonised by Poland's far-right for this most recent addition to a career spanning six decades, Green Border is the work of a daring master in her prime.
