In 1979, a fatal shooting ignites a maelstrom of hostilities against Vietnamese refugee fishermen along the Gulf Coast. Set during the early days of Vietnamese refugee arrival in the U.S., SEADRIFT examines this turbulent yet little-seen chapter of American history, and explores its consequences that continue to reverberate today.
