Director Statement

This film is a satire of immigration and borders. Hopefully it makes one laugh, but also question the absurdity of our current immigration system.

The making of this film I think truly captures the spirit of independent filmmaking. It was shot and performed in its entirety in a little under one hour with a combined cast and crew of 2 people. It is also quite possibly the ONLY short narrative film ever shot on the Antarctic peninsula.
