The concept of borders can differ significantly between a 12-year-old and a 37-year-old, shaped by their life experiences and socio-cultural contexts.

While both may understand the physical delineations of borders, their perceptions and implications of these divisions can vary. Saurav Rai’s film, “Crossing Borders,” offers a compelling exploration of the human bond that transcends geographical and cultural divides. By bringing together strangers in unlikely situations, the film prompts viewers to contemplate the fundamentals of humanity and the ways in which individuals navigate and negotiate borders, both physically and metaphorically. Through its portrayal of moral dilemmas, racial tensions, and survival instincts, the film raises pertinent questions about the nature of human interactions and the forces that shape our perceptions of belonging and identity in an increasingly interconnected world that, at the surface of it, may seem disconnected.

In his film at MAMI Select: Filmed on iPhone, Saurav Rai reaffirms his commitment to storytelling that delves deep into the human experience and offers poignant reflections on life, identity, and the intricate complexities of being human. In his debut feature “Nimtoh,” Rai celebrated the extraordinary within the ordinary, weaving a heartfelt narrative around a seemingly ordinary boy. On the other hand, “Guras” ventures into the realm of metaphysical exploration.

We are excited about the exclusive theatrical premiere of Crossing Borders on April 18. Following the premiere, the film will be available for streaming on the MAMI YouTube channel starting April 19, 2024.
