Independent America: The Two-Lane Search for Mom & Pop:
This feature-length documentary follows the husband and wife team, who are also award-winning NBC journalists-turned-filmmakers, Hanson Hosein and Heather Hughes as they hit the road and travel 13 thousand miles through 32 states looking for an America unchained by corporate retail and for the hardy souls fighting for the right to remain independent. It's a film that encourages people to think hard about where they spend their money and offers a compelling view of the state of small business in America. The duo set out to follow two simple rules through their travels:
No interstates: they only travel on secondary highways and country roads;
and
No corporate chains - they can only do business with Mom & Pop.
