Without Walls (Johnnie Walker - The Journey)

Johnnie Walker The Journey, through stories of personal progress looks to inspire people. Carrying the theme forward, the next instalment in the Storyline titled 'Without Walls', an incredible story that intends to inspire people through offering a different outlook on the barriers, physical and cultural; that create divisions.

The video primarily focuses on the US-Mexico border, but the idea is to inspire people to overcome barriers and re-imagine what is possible.

The video tells the story of Ana Teresa Fernández's work and how she is using art to make the US-Mexico border invisible to the eye by painting part of the border fence sky blue.

Without Walls is directed by Laura Herrero Garvín, an emerging Spanish filmmaker and Oscar winning director, Roger Ross Williams is the film's creative adviser and chief storyteller.

"Even if for an instant, I want people to imagine this place without barriers - without a wall," said artist Ana Teresa Fernández of Without Walls - Painting A New Perspective, a new documentary film from Johnnie Walker The Journey as part of their Storyline initiative.

As part of the launch of Without Walls, Johnnie Walker The Journey is supporting the work of Friends of Friendship Park on the San Diego/Tijuana border - a community of people dedicated to bringing together those separated by the fence.
