Crossing Over is a film that follows the reasoning and sacrifices behind the stories of illegal immigrants entering America. Even more specifically, the strain that the immigration flux has on Los Angeles and the everyday struggles of the immigrants.

The trailer begins with a raid on an immigrant dwelling with Max Brogan (Harrison Ford) appearing as an immigration agent who carries out a group of illegal immigrants. The narrators asks "Have you ever asked yourself why do so many risk so much to cross over our borders". A montage showing several families from diverse cultural backgrounds battling to survive under illegal status. Ford is then shown giving money to a single mother for her child out of frustration with the system.
