Summary
Set during an era of U.S. post-industrialization in which numerous factories have been exported, DOWNEAST focuses on Antonio Bussone's efforts to open a processing factory in rural Maine.. Official Selection: Hot Docs and Tribeca Film Festival. " All those daunting economic numbers that tabulate how many Americans are unemployed and how many factory jobs have been lost in the last 30 years can seem abstract until you run into a documentary like Downeast... It's a tale of hope, frustration and disappointment that reminds us that behind all those big numbers are real human beings." - The New York Times
