"Changing Home – Small Town Survival" University of Montana Student-Produced Documentary Examines Economy of Small-Town Montana

A high school senior packs her bags and gets ready to leave for college, never expecting to return to her hometown. A father of two wants to create opportunity in that same town so someday his children can return home to good jobs. Meanwhile, the town wrestles with the possibility of an economic shot in the arm that potentially poses a threat to the area’s most valuable tourist attraction.
