Lee filmed the video at the end of 2018 around the border, capturing scenes of migrant families as they headed towards “the land of the free”, the group said. It shows migrants of all ages making the journey and at times facing off with security forces. Trump is seeking $5.7 billion from Congress to build a security wall on the southwest U.S. border, a demand Democrats have rejected. The stand-off has lead to the longest partial government shutdown in US history.
