28Dla is getting to the party a little bit fashionably late on this horror story, but the first trailer for Territoires, or Checkpoint, is relevant for pointing out the current troubles at the Us-Canada border. Although, most Canadian border crossers do not experience torture, as suggested by the clip, there have been some stories of Canadians being held in detention for hours on end. Director Olivier Abbou smartly points out some of the current political tensions between these two nations and horror fans should look for Abbou's message in this first trailer for Territoires.
The synopsis for Territoires is here:
"Five friends returning from a marriage in Canada return home to the United States. Not far from the border, two customs officers stop them to check their identity. Suspicious, they take their time especially with Jalil, a man of Arab origin. The situation worsens when a customs officer finds a...

Picturing a border crossing gone bad, five friends find themselves in a Guantanamo type situation, where some overzealous customs officers take them to task. You can see how events play out in a second still of Territories below, courtesy of Upcoming Horror Movies.

Suspicious, they take their time especially with Jalil, a man of Arab origin. The situation worsens when a customs officer finds a small bag of marijuana in the luggage.
Then things degenerate rapidly: a customs officer grabs the little dog that's part of the group and slits open its belly to be sure it's not a mule. When Gab makes a move,...
