Across the border - Five Views From Neighbours / Über die Grenze - Fünf Ansichten von Nachbarn
Across the Border is a polyglot portrait of ideas about borders at the beginning of the 21st century. In an episodic journey from north to south five directors, from Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia, present their view and vision of nation, identity and Europe: by placing their personal cinematographic imprint on multifaceted portraits of their home countries, in all their stylistic variety, they open up a broad space for encounters with the strangers next door.
