Presented with the Appalachian Project, Hollow encourages a dialogue about the issues that small-town America faces.  This event will include a screening and a discussion with the director, Elaine McMillion. This event will bring the FSA and the Appalachian Project together to learn more about issues confronting people living in, or from, Appalachia. 

Hollow is an interactive documentary that merges cinematic techniques with web-based storytelling to encourage a dialogue about the issues that small-town America faces and a story of hope and home and strives to not only address the issues through storytelling but help provide potential solutions. The project examines the lives of 30 individuals living in McDowell County, W.Va., an area that has lost almost 80 percent of its population since 1950 and is representative of many boom-and-bust areas across the country. The stories of residents have been brought to life for the outside world to understand the often-overlooked sector of our society.
