The Story: BACK TO THE ROOTS

Texas Monthly has chronicled the state for more than fifty years, and nobody knows Texas—its characters and complexities—better than the magazine’s writers and editors. Texas Monthly Presents brings that journalism from the page to the screen, and the first season, titled The Story, transforms select stories into brand-new visual experiences, combining cinematic footage with writer interviews.

The Story: BACK TO THE ROOTS

Texas Monthly Presents: The Story Episode 10 | 26m 47s | CC

In a quickly evolving state, a look at one’s roots can sometimes bring clarity and reinvention. In this episode, we explore an indigenous cultural site reinventing itself in the wake of natural disaster, a pair of chefs reintroducing traditional Mexican tortillas to the state, and a punk band with a turbulent history reuniting and reentering the spotlight.
