In 1967, Canadian filmmaker Hugh O'Connor visited the mountains of central Appalachia to document poverty.

Filmmaker Elizabeth Barret, a native of Appalachia, uses O'Connor's death as a lens to explore the complex relationship between those who make films to promote social change and the people whose lives are represented in such media productions.
