In the 1980s, an ambitious real estate developer came to Austin, Tex., with a dream–to transform miles of pristine wilderness into a sprawling self-sufficient city. When the development threatened a local treasure, a fragile limestone aquifer and a naturally spring-fed swimming hole, the community decided to fight back. Laura Dunn’s lyrical and beautifully crafted documentary uses this landmark struggle–a microcosm of what’s happening in communities across the country today–to consider the cost of the American dream.
