No Man’s Law

Richard Douglas Jensen – Director | Wednesday 06.10. | 19:45 HS

Description

An ex-Border Patrol agent is suicidal because he did the wrong thing and an entire family died. He obeyed orders and failed to rescue a migrant family which was drowning in the Rio Grande River. His soul is damned, he has no future. A mystical fortune teller predicts he will have one chance to escape the darkness. A chance encounter with a lost migrant girl brings his last hope for redemption. Helping an undocumented migrant is against federal law. As he drives cross-country to reunite the lost girl with her family, his plan is discovered and a manhunt ensues. To save this child and redeem his soul he’ll obey No Man’s Law.

Director Statement
I believe the future of our society is based upon our shared humanity, and I believe the independent filmmaker is essential in bringing this message to the world. Film must tell stories of people and their shared humanity. It is vital for the survival of our planet. “No Man’s Law” is my first feature film and is step one in my commitment to independent film with social commitment and advocacy.
