Thursday 10/24, 4:40 PM (Session 23)

Director: Suzan Beraza
Producers: Judith Kohin, Michelle Maughan, Casey Nay

Description:

The promise of jobs from a proposed uranium mill has an economically devastated mining community in Colorado hopeful for the first time in decades. When environmentalists step in to stop the mill, pro-mill advocates are enraged. A debate ensues, pitting jobs against health and the environment. Without judgment, both sides of the issue are brought to life in heart-wrenching detail as the film follows conflicting visions for the future. The film offers no easy answers but aims instead to capture personal stories and paint a social portrait of the lives behind this nuanced and complex issue.

Biography:
