- Scope and Contents
- Contains material related to the black and white narrative film In Ya Blood, a 1971 release directed by Herb E. Smith. Appalshop's first fiction film, In Ya Blood tells the story of a young man from Appalachia in the summer after his senior year in high school. Randy, the protagonist, must make the difficult decision faced by many Appalachian youth--whether to stay in the mountains or leave in search of "a better life." The film follows Randy as he talks with friends, visits a coal mine, and struggles with his alternatives of working in the mines or going off to college. Includes an interview with a coal miner that is not scripted. Subjects include coal mining, rural youth, and economic conditions in the Appalachian region.
