In Security (2010)

In Security is an engaging and thought provoking one-hour documentary film about how barbed wire, a simple nineteenth century invention used to secure agricultural property, has evolved into a silent sentinel that acts as a means of control over people and spaces around the world. Barbed wire is used everywhere for security purposes, but it also speaks loudly about the insecurity of our times. In Security is a historical journey from Texas and the Great Plains, to the twentieth century battlefields of Europe, and on to South Africa, the Middle East, the U.S border with Mexico and finally to the Louisiana State Penitentiary.
