"Blacksmith" is a 15-minute poetic documentary that highlights the work of Rob Flurry, the resident blacksmith at the Spindletop-Gladys City Boomtown Museum in Beaumont, Texas.

"Blacksmith" was filmed in the tradition of poetic documentary - no voice overs, monologue or dialogue is spoken. All of the action is put to music that compliments the mood of each scene.
