In the treacherous forests between Belarus and Poland, refugees seeking passage to the European Union find themselves pawns in a geopolitical war engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. Lured by false promises, their dreams of safety turn into a desperate struggle for survival. Amidst this harrowing reality, the lives of three individuals intertwine: Julia, a young activist awakened to the refugees' plight; Jan, a conflicted border guard torn between duty and compassion; and a Syrian family yearning for a better future.

With her latest film, acclaimed Polish filmmaker Agnieszka Holland (Europa Europa) challenges us to confront the human cost of a crisis currently unfolding on Europe's doorstep. Winner of the Venice Film Festival’s Special Jury Prize, Green Border is an urgent and unflinching masterpiece that will leave a lasting impact.
