Border (2002)

Overview

A woman in black dances with single-minded intensity before a grave. Eventually her steps lead her away from the grave and along the US military base fence strung across the island. A video shot almost by feel, as Yamashiro attempts to pin down the true nature of the doubt and disease she harbours in everyday life, Border ends on the beach at Henoko in Nago, a location rocked by controversy over construction of a new American base.
