America Lost (TBA)

'America Lost' is documentary on the lives of the people who come from the forgotten American cities - Youngstown (in Ohio), Memphis (in Tennessee), and Stockton (in California). The film showcases a decline in the American interior from the personal stories and the conservative commentaries. Filmmaker Christopher F. Rufo spent five years in the neighborhood gathering the stories of the Americans on the edge - an ex-steelworker struggling to survive by scrapping abandoned homes, an incarcerated father trying to rebuild his life and a single mother who dreams of escaping her downtrodden neighborhood. The film also offers a glimmer of hope in rebuilding the communities and families from ground up.
