Crossing Over |
|
Immigrants from around the world enter Los Angeles every day, with hopeful visions of a better life, but little notion of what that life may cost. Their desperate scenarios test the humanity of immigration enforcement officers. In Crossing Over, writer-director Wayne Kramer explores the allure of the American dream, and the reality that immigrants find ' and create -- in 21st century L.A.
Kramer's intersecting stories, both cathartic and tragic, are brought to life by an international ensemble.

Encompassing a single, fateful evening in the sprawling megalopolis of Sao Paulo, Journey to the End of the Night is a gritty, crime thriller about an illicit transaction gone awry...
Two Americans in exile - Rosso (Scott Glenn) and his son, Paul (Brendan Fraser) - have been carving out a living in Brazil running a nightclub-brothel, but they both harbor dreams of getting out of the business once and for all. One night, it seems their prayers are answered when a customer leaves behind a suitcase in the club that contains the means for Rosso and Paul to change their fates.
Rosso will take his beautiful, young wife Angie (Catalina Sandino Moreno) and their 5 year-old son Lazare to start over in a new city, far away. Paul will escape mounting debt, an escalating coke habit, and finally be rid of his father (whom he despises and blames for all of his problems). It all depends on one person - a Nigerian immigrant named Webma (Mos Def) - who must make his way safely through the perilous, nocturnal gauntlet of Sao Paulo.
