Verdict on Borderline

Recap

The short movie follows the three strangers from three different countries clashing on the border. It hilariously watches them clash with language and culture. However, who is tell the truth about what they are doing there or not.

Best Parts

The clash in cultures, laws and languages is the driving point of this short comedy. It gives us great performances, which play into the comedy, while not becoming too drawn into one side being right. While this is only a short, it could easily be a bigger, even funnier comedy of clash of culture. This is a lovely, enjoyable and hilarious comedy.
