Holland discusses why she wanted to make the film, how it's in conversation with her other work, and why she chose to shoot it in black and white. Green Border is about the ongoing migrant crisis at the Polish-Belarusian border and the horrors happening there. Holland tells the story from multiple perspectives, including a family of refugees, a group of activists helping migrants, and the border guards, to give a picture of the complex and harrowing situation. >> Subscribe to our FREE newsletter for updates on the best new under-the-radar films and streaming theatre productions << Follow Seventh Row on Twitter and Instagram.
