The film shows the hardships of agriculture before the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) came in and built many dams in the 1930s and 1940s to help prevent the problems of flooding, erosion, and poor irrigation. Before the TVA built its many dams there were a lot of farms, houses, and lives lost due to flooding. With the building of the dams and educating of the farmers in the Tennessee River Valley, the TVA helped better the area for generations to come. The film documents the origins and construction of the Tennessee Valley Authority and
