Producer Elizabeth Wilder visits struggling rural North Carolina regions to examine how communities and businesses are reinventing themselves to become competitors in a global economy.

This documentary explores efforts in towns across the state to bring rural economies that were decimated by manufacturing leaving our state. In some counties we see how manufacturing companies like Stanley Furniture are being reinvented as high end furniture makers to position themselves in the world wide market place.
