Tina is not like everyone else. She looks different and she can sense or smell how people feel – a skill that makes her an invaluable border control agent. When she meets Vore, who shares her physical traits and seems to know things she doesn’t, her life is disrupted completely. Equal parts folktale, harrowing crime drama, love story and pitch-dark fantasy, BORDER is a remarkable film challenging the borders of morality, beauty, gender and sexuality in the most unexpected manner.

“An exciting, intelligent mix of romance, Nordic noir, social realism, and supernatural horror that defies and subverts genre conventions.”
