In last years movies, the border as a space and a representation system stopped being part of one circumstance, the line that is or not crossed, one aspect of the frame, in order to appear each time more as a single element. This outlook alteration express another bigger change related with the growing migration matter, the border policy in a world always more globalized in cultural and economical aspects, and also with new theoretical approach that are participating in making migration and its conditions as one independent topic of analysis. From the analysis of Sleep Dealer, Norteado y Los bastardos, we’re investigating new configurations that modern cinema offers about migration.
