Description: Crossing Borders is a documentary that follows four Moroccan and four American university students as they travel together through Morocco. With group travels and frank discussions, the students confront the complex implications of the supposed clash of civilizations between Islam and the West. Humor, honesty and a willingness to be challenged all bring individuals closer to each other and the relationships that develop disarm hidden stereotypes.
