Finding unexpected connections between personal stories, community actions, and the arc of history, Oscar(R)-nominated filmmakers Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan explore how a sense of community and a common language of change can help people and towns find a different path to the future. Based on the bestselling book by James and Deborah Fallows, this documentary looks at how small towns and cities respond to setbacks to find their way forward.
