In 2018, in response to Donal Trump’s border wall initiative, I bought a motorcycle and drove south to discover the Texas/Mexico border firsthand. I had never ridden a motorcycle and knew next to nothing of my fellow Texans in this region.
Borderlanders is an independent documentary film following my nine day ride.
Each day chronicles interviews with borderlanders sharing their views of what life is like along the border.
This is my first documentary film to produce and features original music composed for the film.
Thank you to the folks I met along the way and all the supporters of the film.
