Get Ripped Abs Using My Proven Golden Technique!

A documentary maker embeds himself with a group of Mexicans crossing the border into the U.S.

Dying to Get In provides an intimate perspective of border crossing and the people who cross. The U.S./Mexican border, dubbed the "gauntlet of death" is infiltrated first-hand by documentarian Brett Tolley in this gritty examination. In his effort to further understand the relationships between developed and developing countries, the viewer is pulled deep into the Arizona desert where so many have already perished. Along the U.S./Mexican border, since 1994, the number of deaths in the Southern Arizona desert has continued to increase until the Summer of 2005 when it reached a record high. Many of these deaths occurred from dehydration. Insight into America's undocumented population shows that trade policies and economic sanctions have effectively forced people off of their own land. This phenomena is one of the world's best vehicles for learning the effects of globalization.

Things aren’t looking good for elderly Native American George Mason… until his new best friend – a Canada goose – shows him life isn’t over until it’s over.

It’s been a long, sometimes-hard life for George Mason; and in his mind spending the rest his days in a retirement home is hardly worth the effort.

Then the goose comes along. Soon, the old man’s cast iron heart softens and he begins to change the way he thinks: The relationship he never really had with his son becomes more important to him; he sees his granddaughter through eyes much wider; and a young boy he meets by the lake is given an opportunity to take a different road than he once might have. For the first time in many years, there’s a bounce in George’s step.
