Synopsis

March 13, 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic spreads across the globe. Switzerland closes its external borders. Using this event as the starting point for her reflection, Juliet Fall embarks on a journey by bicycle with her family, tracing the physical border between France and the Canton of Geneva, step by step, from marker to marker. Over three years of exploration, the author examines the concept of "borders" and our relationship to this invisible line that profoundly impacts both bodies and imaginations. She delves into the long, eventful history of its construction, evolution, and maintenance. This graphic essay is the result of a new kind of social research, departing from academic standards and giving equal weight to both words and images.
