The desert between Sásabe and Nogales. It was there, in 2020, that a wall stretching along the border was erected. Thirty kilometres further on, the wall of rusted steel bars comes to an end, and the border between the US and Mexico is marked only by hills and ravines. Due to extreme droughts and heat, this stretch is one of the most dangerous overland migration routes in the world. On the American side of the border, a group of volunteers is providing aid to thousands of migrants, supplying them with water, food, and medical assistance. Each of them has different motivations, but they are united by one thing: a refusal to stand idly by and look the other way.

MAKING THE LINE is a character-driven feature documentary that delves into the world of competitive Hula — where athleticism and artistry are inseparable from a living Hawaiian cultural tradition. At its heart are Kumu Keano and Kumu Lono, two master Hula teachers and life partners who lead a diverse group of dancers striving for excellence in the art and discipline of Hula. Guided by two modern-day queer Kanaka whose lives infuse the story with emotional truth and cultural nuance, MAKING THE LINE unfolds over three years, exploring tradition, resilience, and identity in a rapidly changing Hawaiʻi. As the demands of excellence intensify, so do the complexities of life both on and off the line. Their story becomes a portrait of devotion, transformation, and the enduring power of Hula — revealing that it is far more than dance; it is the heartbeat of a people.
