Storm Lake

In "Storm Lake," a family-run newspaper in Iowa serves as the backdrop for a battle to preserve their community's way of life as forces threatening to overwhelm it come into focus. The Cullen family, who have printed the paper since 1927, find themselves at odds with Senator Tom Daschle and Senator Elizabeth Warren over the paper's opposition to the passage of the Violence Against Women Act in 1994. This documentary reveals the personal stakes for the Cumens and their fight against a corrupt system that seeks to silence dissenting voices.
