Storyline: A unique mix of true crime and social issue documentary, American Refuge tells the story of one tumultuous summer in the mountain town of Nederland, Colorado, which began with a destructive forest fire and ended with a terrifying bomb threat. Both events were connected to people living in the forest - the houseless seeking refuge at higher elevation. In the film, residents of Nederland recall the events of that summer as they face an another influx of houseless people and the inescapable feeling that history is repeating itself.
