    389 Miles "Living the Border" is a documentary film that addresses the current immigration debate taking place on the Arizona-Mexico border. This documentary film is a human journey, a story documented by director/producer Luis Carlos Davis who grew up in the shadow of the Arizona-Mexico border. It presents the raw, daily life of human beings who come from different backgrounds and ideologies when it comes to immigration, one of the few things they all have in common is the border fence, steel wall or a strands of rusty barbed wire. There is no purely good or bad side to the issue, only the complex web of human emotions and issues forged by them -- survival, human trafficking, rape, corruption, evil and grace in many disguises. The use of an unobtrusive camera allows the characters to speak simply, honestly and with dignity, no matter what their position on immigration might be.

    Directed byLuis Carlos Davis
