SUMMARY:The Spirits Still Move Them - film by David Weintraub
DESCRIPTION:Most of what we think we know about moonshining history is wrong.  That’s one of the themes of the Center for Cultural Preservation’s new documentary film on regional moonshine history\, The Spirits Still Move Them.  David Weintraub\, award-winning director/producer of forty history films interviews nearly three dozen moonshiners and their families in Western North Carolina\, East Tennessee and the Dark Corner of South Carolina to tell a story about moonshine history that’s never been relayed before. This screening of the film is made possible by the Friends of the Library. Running time is approximately an hour.  \nThe film digs deep into Southern Appalachian history exposing the stereotypes and fabrications about mountaineers that have been fodder for movies and cable television programs for generations from the Beverly Hillbillies to the Moonshiner Show.  Says Cody Bradford\, fifth generation moonshiner and owner of Howling Moon Distillery in Asheville\, “People think all moonshiners were outlaws but it was the federal government that enacted an excise tax after the Civil War that poor farmers had to bear.  It was either starve or make liquor and it’s not difficult to understand which one they chose.” \nFollowing the film\, there will be a discussion led by the director with a local moonshiner. \nThis film is made possible by Blue Ridge National Heritage Area Partnership\, the Community Foundation of Henderson County and North Carolina Humanities.  The Center for Cultural Preservation is a cultural nonprofit organization dedicated to working for mountain heritage continuity through oral history\, documentary film\, education and public programs.
