When a young Chinese-Dutch woman seeks an escape from the daily grind of her stifling office job in a simulated virtual world, she encounters her dark alter ego, born from her deepest suppressed desires.

Sign and See the World sheds light on the journey of three young Surinamese men who, far from home, travel from Suriname via Canada to Europe during World War II to join the Princess Irene Brigade. Driven by a determination to help liberate the Netherlands, the film reveals the challenges and hardships of their journey, as well as the personal motivations, courage, and sacrifice that drove them to play a crucial role in the liberation of the Netherlands and Europe - one that never made it to the history books.

With a visual style that alternates between intimate verité moments, meditative reflection and suspenseful sequences, the film tells the story of Chief Ramon Gonzalez, detective Manuel Casas and officer Mayra Garza, as they navigate the complexities of their existence on the US/Mexican border.

Seen through the eyes of a priest, a crime reporter and a hitman, this documentary examines the thin line between good and evil in one of the most dangerous cities in the world: San Pedro Sula, Honduras.
