Crossing Over
horizontal line

A gritty, thought-provoking, poor man's Crash film that intertwines various stories about immigration issues in Los Angeles, including a compassionate Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) police officer (Harrison Ford) trying to help an illegal Mexican factory worker (Alice Braga) with a young son while looking into the shooting death of his partner's (Cliff Curtis) promiscuous sister (Melody Khazae) who shamed his Iranian family, a Jewish schoolteacher (Jim Sturgess) trying to get his green card, a hardnosed FBI agent (Jacqueline Obradors) arresting an outspoken 15-year-old Muslim student (Summer Bishil) from India after she gives a politically charged and inflammatory speech in class and an immigration defense lawyer (Ashley Judd) trying to help her dire situation, a slimy judicator (Ray Liotta) blackmailing a wannabe Australian actress (Alice Eve) who wants her work visa expedited, and an angry young Korean student (Justin Chon) mixed up with the wrong crowd who is waiting to become a U.S. citizen with his proud family.
