Borderline

Borderline is the story of four former border guards, who served their military duty on the inner-German border seventeen years ago. Until now, none of them has ventured to discuss the most formative period of their youth. Now the four meet again at their former guard post.

Of the four-thousand kilometer border, only their sentry area remains - three hundred meters of the wall, observation towers, and signal fencing. An absurd coincidence? Borderline is a journey deep into the souls of the protagonists, a journey back in time to this eerily preserved scene of action. And it is the story of a fifth guard, who saw the writing on the walls, and tried to flee social pressure and the reason of the state.
