In October of 2008 director Sebastien Wielemans met the energetic Shawna Forde, head of the Minutemen of Arizona. They are a kind of civilian militia who patrols the Mexican border looking for illegal aliens. His film takes a dramatic turn when Forde is arrested as a suspect in a double homicide. Intrigued by the stories published in the local press, Sebastien looks her up in prison. He has made an unsettling portrait of most extreme form of American patriotism.
