“Cruces” is an experimental and multivocal ethnographic exploration of the geographies and human stories along and across the US-Mexico border. Using landscape scenes and sound recordings – from desperate emergency call recordings to a concerned NGO worker and an undocumented resident in NYC – a portrait emerges that captures the scope of one of the most defining and political phenomena of our time.

Carlos Tobón Franco is currently a PhD candidate in anthropology at the University of Texas at Austin. His interests lie in five areas: the sensory, non-fiction, political ecologies, Latin America, and death/genocides between the US and Latin America. His work over the last ten years explores the aesthetics of non-fiction with the Latin American diaspora, borderlands, and the industrial complex of surveillance, infrastructure and the military. In his home country Colombia, Carlos has been honoured by the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Education, and the Institute of Culture and Heritage of Antioquia, among others.
