Texas is at a crossroads. Across our state, booming development, shifting industries, and new legislation are causing uncertainty. Through the lens of a female shrimper, a father fighting to preserve his hemp business, and farmers whose land is being transformed by industry, we witness our changing state and the people grappling with an uncertain future.
