Michael Berry – DIRECTOR

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT – MICHAEL BERRY

Though the events that take place in FRONTERA are fiction, they are inspired by the reality that exists in this region and affects the people who live there. Neither my co-writer Juan Luis Moulinet nor I, have delusions that there are any obvious solutions to these issues. When Luis and I started talking about making this film, we were both adamant that we did not want to lean the narrative toward one side or the other. We wanted instead to illuminate and focus on the humanity from the point of view of the characters on both sides. Our most ambitious hope is that in some small way, the story of FRONTERA might raise questions and serve as a reminder that there are human beings on both sides of the line being affected by these issues every day. Perhaps the only thing that is truly obvious is that something must be done to improve the situation in this region. Perhaps instead of focusing on the politics of who is right or wrong, we might re-double our efforts to concentrate on working together to find solutions to this complicated and challenging issue that has led to so much suffering and injustice on both sides of the line.
