In the summer of 2021, the north-east European migration route has been modified and re-established. The EU monster has once again reared its ugly face once again. Politicians feeding the narrative of danger of migration, allying themselves with right-wing and conservative forces. Europe defends its wealth by any means and accepts the death of people without hesitation.

The Polish-Belarusian border area has been shielded, walls were built and the so-called border protection was incredibly militarised. Despite this violent policy, people on the move are still trying to cross the border and seek protection in Europe. Activists who support them face serious police and government repression.

A few hundred kilometres to the south, since February 2022, millions of people have been fleeing to Poland because of the war in Ukraine. They stand in long queues at the border leaving their daily lives, their loved ones, called  to fight. However, their journey is accompanied by different emotions. Many of them find refuge in peoples homes and a safe place to live and work.

In the documentary people from an anarchist collective, the No Border Team, active on the Polish-Belarusian and Polish-Ukrainian borders, talk about the current situation, state racism, their struggles and support.
