In Tijuana, the border is a 15-mile long wall that separates Mexico from the United States. Serena, Jane and Elizabeth are three women in this hot, dusty border town each looking for meaning in their lives. Serena, a young Mexican widow, arrives with her three children to build a new life; Jane, an American, is looking for her brother and Elizabeth, a Mexican-American artist is in search of her roots. Each one of them finds more than they had expected in this place that is both a refuge for some and prison for others, a garden and a desert.

Maria Novaro, Director
