Texas director explores hate, hope in docuseries about South Texas mosque fire
In the three-part docuseries A Town Called Victoria, filmmaker and former Houston-area resident Li Lu follows the members of a Muslim community in Victoria, Texas, in 2017 when their local mosque is destroyed by a fire. When officials discover that the fire was deliberately set and that Islamophobia was the reason their place of worship was now gone, the small town is forced to confront its dark past and find a way to heal from the hate that has engulfed them.
