Summary A few miles outside of Pittsburgh, lies the town of Braddock, the last bastion of steel. Like many cities in the industrial heartland, Braddock has seen better days. But its community continues to come together as it tries try to shape the future and reinvent itself in a postindustrial West. A blue collar poem that pays bittersweet tribute to a once-thriving steel town. A heartbreaking look at what industrialization wrought and globalization wrecked. - New York Times An enormously powerful portrait of a once-mighty stell town, the film is an unforgettable docment of post-industrial America and a reflection on the fate of so many similar towns throughout the United States. - The Village Voice
