Soft Border Patrol

2018–2020 · 3 seasons

A gentle, deadpan mockumentary that mines quiet absurdity from bureaucratic border life, easy to dip into and amiably funny.

Overview: On that stretch of land where the EU meets the UK, the Soft Border Patrol, backed by governments in London, Dublin, Belfast and Brussels, monitors those caught between a rock and a soft place.
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, light and whimsical. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Politics, work, identity, media
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
