  • Summary: The US offers hope—but that often comes at a price. Many can earn citizenship legally through a lengthy bureaucratic process, but others find themselves out of luck in a country where virtually anything can be bought. Sex, violence and betrayal become their currency. Some wait in line for permission to enter the U.S. while others take matters into their own hands. (The Weinstein Company)… Expand

    Crossing Over is so eager to go for the emotional jugular that it never quite forges an enlightening point of view.
