Johnny Knoxville is listed as an Executive Producer on this documentary about a colorful Appalachian family named White. Directed by Julien Nitzberg, The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia gets up close and personal with the White clan, which is known as much for their disturbing and excessive ways as they are for their famous mountain tap dancing legacy. Stabbings, attempted murder, drug trafficking and a child custody battle ensue.
Last week Executive Director Nancy Schafer talked us through some of the fun events happening during the festival, which include free stuff like the drive-in movies and the family street fair, the post-screening Q&A's with directors such as Spike Lee and Steven Soderbergh, and a "work in progress" premiere screening of the documentary, Bon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful.
