Destierros
(Destierros)
Hubert Caron-Guay | Documentary
2018 | 92 minutes | Canada
During the U.S. election, migrants from Central America are more than aware that it could be their last chance to cross the Mexican border into the States.
Synopsis
Border mechanisms that act on migrants are plentiful. From shelter to shelter, boarding on trains, migrants head north across Mexico to reach the United States and Canada.
During the U.S. election, migrants from Central America are more than aware that it could be their last chance to cross the Mexican border into the States.
In complete immersion, Destierros draws a path of reclusion. A path where time is still the longest road between two places.
