Beyond Borders is a short animated documentary narrating the story of Dr. Alan Pereira, a humanitarian doctor from India. The documentary takes one through the experiences of working as a humanitarian medic in war zones around the world today. As the nature of wars has changed over the last century, so has the role of humanitarians become more and more vital. However, Medical facilities are becoming a primary target in armed attacks, infringing the Geneva Conventions and posing a severe threat to the lives of those working in these conflicted zones. Beyond Borders takes one through the personal experiences of Dr. Alan and looks at how he along with numerous other humanitarians continue to persistently work through these challenging conditions.
