Between Rock and a Hard Place
A Film by Kenneth Fink
Beautifully shot in the Blue Ridge Mountains, BETWEEN ROCK AND A HARD
PLACE reveals the fears, frustrations, and hardships on the lives of
three coal miners in Appalachia, illuminating the human side of these
resilient, strong, and proud men.
"[BETWEEN ROCK AND A HARD PLACE] fills an important gap in American
labor studies." - Randy Lawrence, West Virginian Coal Life Project
"An important film for those in the fields of labor studies and
industrial relations as it portrays what work in America can do to
the mind and the body." - Kenneth Dix, Professor of Labor History,
West Virginia University
"An eloquent document about the nature and meaning of work in
this country." - Studs Terkel
