Crafting A Nation, a documentary filmed by Free Mind Productions, from Denver, CO, covers
economic recovery and the American Dream via the booming craft beer industry. The film
visits craft breweries in 15 locations, along with following a new Colorado brewery from
idea to grand opening. The movie shows these breweries as they finish construction, launch
their brands, and open to the public, and focuses on the struggles and triumphs of small
business owners. Crafting A Nation tells stories of local economies, where a brewery
serves as a catalyst to a chain reaction which occurs from breweries revitalizing a
section of a city and providing jobs, and the resulting domino effect that follows with
other small businesses that work together to succeed as a result of the brewery.
