THE WALL
2023. Fiction feature, 96 min.
Jessica Comley is a Border Patrol on a stretch of the border between Mexico and Arizona, a desert area that migrants cross in spite of the danger and that she is proud to defend. But, one day, a vertigo—a pressure too strong—leads her to commit the irrevocable. She kills an injured and harmless migrant in front of her partner and a Native American and his grandson. From this point on, it will her word against theirs. She will not let a Native American knock her down.
