Attraversare una frontiera, fare anche un solo passo oltre quella linea immaginaria che segna la fine di un mondo e l'inizio di un altro, significa venire trasformati nel profondo. La frontiera, il limite, il confine risvegliano le nostre coscienze. Sono il luogo in cui non possiamo sfuggire alla verità: ci spogliamo dei panni comodi della nostra esistenza quotidiana che nascondono gli aspetti più brutali della realtà, per osservare le cose come sono.
