這個故事跟山崗大地一樣古老,但每天都在以更可怕的方式上演。國界彼方,來自墨西哥各地的人們不安地等著跨越國境;界線這頭,美國官方指望危險沙漠能阻止非法越境,卻沒料到飢餓的人從來無法可擋。不同時空下,有一樣的害怕:害怕「他者」;害怕「他」的污穢、「他」可能帶來的疾病,害怕「他」入侵,可是卻從不害怕殺死「他」。本片2005年曾以《來自他方》之名在臺放映,今時今日看來更發人深省。
With her unmistakable style, Chantal Akerman explores the border between the United States and Mexico. For years, immigrants passed through San Diego, but cutting-edge technologies have helped reduce illegal immigration there. This leaves only the mountains and deserts of Arizona for those desperate enough to try their luck. It is here that Akerman shifts her focus, capturing the stretch between Agua Prieta, Sonora, and Douglas, Arizona, including the desert in between.
