The Borders of Paradise Documentary Screening

The Borders of Paradise offers a poignant exploration of the southern French-Italian border, a place where Europe’s famed luxury meets one of its worst humanitarian hotspots. Once celebrated for its glamour, this region now stands as a bottleneck in the ongoing migrant reception crisis. Every year, over 30,000 migrants pass through Ventimiglia, the last Italian town before the French border, in hopes of a better life. This documentary provides an intimate portrayal of the human stories, featuring deeply personal accounts from migrants traveling from Sudan, Eritrea, Cameroon, Pakistan, and beyond, as they navigate perilous journeys and uncertain futures in Europe.
