New trailer for Appalshop documentary "Morristown"
"We don't make anything in this country anymore. If they closed the ports, we'd be naked and barefoot."
- Shirley Reinhardt, former GE worker, Morristown, Tn
Morristown a working class response to globalization.
In this hour-long documentary, director Ann Lewis chronicles nearly a decade of change in Morristown, Tennessee, through interviews with displaced or low-wage Southern workers, Mexican immigrants, and workers and families impacted by globalization.
The film shows how working-class people in Mexico and eastern Tennessee are caught in the throes of massive economic change, challenging their assumptions about work, family, nation and community.
"Morristown" is in Spanish and English with subtitles.
