Shot in stark black-and-white, the film follows a family of refugees from Syria, an English teacher from Afghanistan and a border guard who meet in no man’s land at the Poland-Belarus border during the most recent refugee crisis in Belarus. Nominated for the prestigious European Film Awards and premiering at the Venice Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize, the film has been praised for its raw and impactful portrayal of human suffering and the geopolitical games that exacerbate it. Holland has been a vocal advocate for democracy and human rights, often speaking out against authoritarianism and injustice. The film has caused outrage in her homeland fueled by the ultra-conservative government – and become an unlikely box office hit.
