SYNOPSIS:
Border 197 is a groundbreaking documentary series following Drew Binsky, one of the world’s most seasoned travelers and celebrated content creators, on his quest to visit every country on Earth. With five times more people having traveled to outer space than accomplished this feat, Drew’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Each episode spotlights one of the final countries on his list, uncovering powerful stories and the beauty of human connection through his unique travel style—relying entirely on locals and fans to guide him, even in challenging destinations like Yemen or Afghanistan.
As Drew often says, “A stranger is a friend you’ve never met,” and through his lens, even locals rediscover the magic of their own homelands. Drawing from his extensive footage library, the series weaves together moments of discovery, the shared experiences that unite us, and the courage it takes to explore the unknown.
More than an adventure, Border 197 offers a behind-the-scenes look at Drew’s fearless life and the realities of being a social media creator while celebrating the vast, beautiful world and the timeless importance of human connection in our increasingly digital age.
