About the Documentary:
Residents in the area have long voiced concerns over high cancer rates, which they
connect to the excessive pollution they breathe. However, concerns have long been
ignored by local and state leaders, with industry leaders dismissing “Cancer Alley”
as a myth.
In 2023, Fenceline: Louisiana's Cancer Alley received the "Best Non-Fiction Award" at the A Show For A Change film festival and
was nominated for "Best Documentary" at the Catskill International Film Festival.
