Thesis (Ph.D.)--Ohio University, 2016.

This dissertation investigates four contemporary films that focus on borders and border security in the wake of 9/11. The films chosen were: Three Burials for Melquiades Estrada (Tommy Lee Jones 2005) Frozen River (Courtney Hunt 2008), Children of Men (Alfonso Cuaron 2005), and Sleep Dealer (Alex Rivera 2008). The textual analysis of this dissertation focuses on depictions of border spaces and the people who cross them within a particular cycle of films. This work examines how this collection of films challenges both traditional depictions of border spaces in films and the nativist conceptions of border that permeated the country in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. In doing so, this work explores how these cinematic border spaces offer new conceptions of home, identity, and citizenship.
