Kenya-Jade Pinto
2026
Through cinematic landscapes and testimony from survivors, journalists, and witnesses, Kenya-Jade Pinto’s The Sandbox explores modern border control, where surveillance, AI, and militarization decide who lives and who dies. From the Arizona desert to the drone-policed Mediterranean, migrants flee unforgiving landscapes while rescuers face the Sisyphean task of keeping them safe. Meanwhile, tools tested at borders spill into databases and daily life, collapsing distance between watcher and watched. No villain stands at the center, only processes and protocols.. There is no outside: the film shatters the illusion separating “them” from us. In The Sandbox, we are all digitizable and disposable.
