When tragedy rears its head with an industrial leak that kills and sickens residents of Friendswood, Texas, it pulls on the common thread that runs through the community, intensifying everything. From a confused 15-year-old girl beset by visions, to a high school football star tormented by his actions, to a mother galvanized by the death of her teen daughter, to a morally bankrupt father trying to survive his mistakes, René Steinke explores what happens when families are trapped in the ambiguity of history’s missteps --- when the actions of a few change the lives and well-being of many.
