”A Town Called Victoria” with Li Lu
Manage episode 382899629 series 2978062
As the first of our series of conversations from the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival, Mike spoke with Li Lu about her new 3-part series, “A Town Called Victoria”. The film explores the aftermath of a mosque burning in this small Texas town. Lu provides a nuanced portrait of the town itself, one torn between support for and fear of the victims, a divide that builds upon and reveals the racial, religious, and economic fissures that had long laid beneath the town’s placid surface. And while Lu focuses on one town, the resonances for the rest of America are not hard to discern.
“A Town Called Victoria” will premiere November 13th on PBS’s Independent Lens.
