Film
Tucked away in the Ozark Mountains, Branson, Missouri has become a tourism haven for the state of Missouri due to its entertainment theaters and other attractions. The filmmaker’s grandparents, Pete and Victoria Dunn, saw potential in this town and thought they could capitalize by buying a piece of property that could be enjoyed for summer vacations and eventually turn a profit. This is the journey the filmmaker takes to discover the history of Branson and what The Bus in the Woods means to his grandparents decades later.
