Genre: Documentary
In 1979, a Vietnamese refugee shot and killed a white crab fisherman on the public docks of Seadrift, Texas. What began as a dispute over fishing territory erupted into violence, igniting a maelstrom of boat burnings, KKK intimidation, and other hostilities against Vietnamese living along the Gulf Coast. Set during the early days of postwar Vietnamese arrival in the US, Seadrift examines the circumstances that led to the shooting, and the unexpected consequences that followed.
