The play tells the story of a family risking everything for an uncertain future, interwoven with other narratives inspired by real migrant experiences. From border police to smugglers, from the media to the emigrants themselves, the play unravels the complex realities of migration journeys. The Border confronts one of today’s most urgent crises: mass emigration from the Balkans, particularly Kosovo. It examines migration driven by Europe’s restrictive policies and global inequalities, asking: who gets to cross, who is left behind, and at what cost?
