DUSTWUN

2020 NR 8

On the US/Mexico border, an undocumented mother's quest to save her son relies on a troubled American Veteran, building a wall out of junk, whose duty is to keep her out.

Shot over 10 days on an active crossing site 30 miles north of the Mexican border, DUSTWUN is the story of an unusual friendship between an undocumented migrant lost from her group traveling toward the US and a troubled American veteran building his own "wall" out of trash in the desert. Circumventing the contentious politics of immigration and the wall, DUSTWUN unfolds as a fable, focusing on the human element at the core of it all. Writer/director Genevieve Anderson's first feature film with predominantly female creatives, the story came from Genevieve's experiences living near the border in Southern Arizona for the past four years.
