Crossing Over
Crossing Over, both directed and produced by Wayne Kramer, is set to release this summer. The movie is a drama that stars such highly ranked actors and actresses as Harrison Ford in the role of Max Brogan, Ray Liotta as Cole Frankel, Sean Penn as Chris Farrell, Cliff Curtis as Hamid Baraheri, Ashley Judd as Denise Frankel, Alice Braga as Mireya and Summer Bishil as Taslima Jahangir.
Crossing Over tells the story of immigrants from around the world who enter Los Angeles every day, with hopeful visions of a better life, but little notion of what that their new life may cost. Different desperate scenarios in the movie show the real humanity of immigration.
Spill.com reports that Crossing Over shows how every day a new group of immigrants come to US in their search of the American dream.
Every day, a new batch of immigrants comes flooding into Los Angeles in search of the American dream - and every day the price of that dream rises exponentially. As the desperation of these newcomers continually tests the humanity of Los Angeles immigration enforcement officers, the face of a 21st Century L.A. gradually begins to take form.
According to Empire Movies, all the immigrants in this movie share a common bond; they all are desperately trying to get a legal status in the States.
Judd will play an immigration defense attorney who is trying to arrange the adoption of a Nigerian girl. Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta, Sean Penn and Cliff Curtis also star. Shooting is set to begin later this month in Los Angeles.
