A Summer Job
project type: short film | motion
#narrative
In a small U.S./Mexico border town, two teenagers drive through desert roads on their way to perform their summer job - picking up migrants who have just illegally crossed the border. As their ride progresses, they negotiate an in-between state that oscillates between boredom and violence, adolescence and adulthood, Mexican and American identities, while living in tension as natural beings in a land controlled by man-made barriers.
