              The exchange of knowledge and experiences, which contemplates transformation, is increasingly more necessary and urgent. In order to deeply transform the notions that have shaped the globalized world; making a radical revision of the notions of time, work, culture, and the persistence of a single model with its totalitarian drift.

              Prodein, a Melilla-based children's rights association, documents the difficult situation of sub Saharans who try to cross the border between Africa and Europe in search of a better life. “Murder” is the best way to describe the deaths that took place - and continue to take place - on the border at Melilla and Ceuta. The summary shooting of all migrants who attempt to climb the fence... “with their backs turned and defenceless, without previous arrest, without administrative or legal proceedings” can only be called “murder”.

              Espacio del inmigrante is a self-managed space created by and for migrants. A space for gathering, reflection, and action. Drawing on “migrant" knowledge and putting forward their own racialised bodies, its members seek to generate new forms of resistance, empowerment and defense of migrant persons as political subjects.

              This video brings us the voices and minds of Farmers from Cuzco, Peru. They explain what school they want for their children, what education is needed for life to flourish and for the strength of ancestral times to be carried over to new generations. Over the past decade the Nucleus for Andean Cultural Affirmation CEPROSI has been working in Cusco with groups of rural teachers and parents in order to attain an understanding of education and cultural diversity. The reflections they make on the way in which Andean children learn of both worlds, western and Andean, lead them to unexpected conclusions that deserve to be listened to and taken into account.

              In global capitalism, the movement of bodies through borders takes the form of an asymmetrical dualism. One side of the border acts as a retaining wall, a knife that cuts territories, bodies, and genders. It is not driven to block access to the central zones of capital, but to bureaucratically manage the legality of the migratory flow, forking it into being and non-being. The other side of the border adopts a flexible interface, expanding endlessly in the space of the “other”, while preserving the impermeability of knowledge and identities. The border has ceased to be a peripheral space, it becomes centre. Its implosion is expressed in a whole range of institutions, security devices, and parallel agencies that inhabit our cities, forming an expanding inner border. The logic of the border is now spreading to all systems of political and cognitive power. In this sense, we can speak of borders as laboratories for a new totalitarian system. Proclamations that were once the domain of openly racist sectarian groups are now being absorbed into governmental and media discourse. Colonialism is also a state of the soul, based on alterity in constant opposition. Always an “other” to criticise, occupy, conquer... never loving contemplation or dialogue for the transformation of being... being without borders.

              Those in power, who see any original idea as a potential seed of disruption and subversion, do not encourage the discussion of ideas or the return to our own values in order to arrive at more humane forms of development. As I made this film, I realised the extent to which Africans ignore their intellectuals. For some time now, they've been warning us about the options being imposed from outside, whether it be international banking, the IMF or even the former colonial powers. It's as though Africa lacked all trust in its intellectuals. Dr. Bado is a typical example of this contempt and lack of understanding. Those in power, who see any original idea as a possible seed of disruption and subversion, don't do anything to encourage discussion of ideas. My intention was to record Dr Bado's ideas so that future generations with greater awareness can take into account the neeed for a return to our own values in order to arrive at more human forms of development.
