In 1961, young Allia is sent from America to live with her cousins in East Berlin after the loss of her parents. For a few months, life is full of endless summer days between the East and West.

Then, in a single night, the world shrinks.

Allia wakes to the sound of heavy engines and hammers. Overnight, barbed wire and cinder blocks tear her street in half, turning her neighborhood into a prison and separating her from the world she was just beginning to love. Growing up in the shadow of the Wall, Allia must learn the art of pretending. To the state, she is a loyal German. But at home, she has a dangerous secret: her cousins and friends are risking everything to find a way out. Spanning from the years 1961 - 1989, Borderland 61 is a story of resilience, secrets, and the unbreakable bond of family. From the first brick to the fall of the Wall, follow Allia's journey as she waits for the day she can finally trade the darkness of the West for the light of the East.
