What’s it about: Every Last Mile chronicles the challenges and triumphs of broadband construction crews in three rural, remote locations:
King Cove, Alaska: Crews braved icy terrain to connect this fishing village that’s only accessible by air and sea.
Lakewood Township, Minnesota: Teams battled a brutal winter to bring internet access to this forested area off the coast of Lake Superior.
Congress, Arizona: Workers endured scorching desert heat to help bridge the digital divide.
Why you should watch: The documentary reveals some of the critical efforts underway to connect rural America. Gain insight into the challenges faced by broadband crews and see what it truly takes to connect the unconnected.
The work to close the digital divide is far from over. Yet thousands of projects – just like the ones depicted in Every Last Mile – are underway across the nation.
Through raising awareness and advocating for continued investment, America can bridge the digital divide and ensure that every community, regardless of location, has access to high-speed internet.
