Shoot-outs, robberies, gas-huffing , drug dealing, pill popping, murders, and tap dancing - what do these all have in common? These are just a few of the parts of being a member of the Wild and Wonderful White Family.

Exploring both the comic and tragic sides of life on the other side of the law, this stylish, fast-paced family portrait exposes the powerful forces of corruption, poverty, and West Virginia's environmentally and culturally devastating coal mining culture that helped shape the White family, a dying breed of outlaws preserving a dying form of dance.

| User ReviewDee TThe whites get right up in your face and donâ(TM)t apologize for it one bit. This is a reality that will bite at the core of your being and make you stop and realize that there are people in the world who live to an extreme some of us will never know.
