Dave Anderson's Rough Beauty explores the character and burden of a close-knit community branded by its past. Vidor, Texas is a poor rural town, reviled for its history of Ku Klux Klan activities. However, behind the stereotype is a town of bootstrappers struggling to get by against a background of crushing poverty almost reminiscent of the Depression.
