Space Launches Restrict Texas Beach Access | Boca Chica | PBS Short Film Festival 2024

Official website: https://to.pbs.org/3VUctYa | #PBSFilmFest Unrestricted access to beaches is a public right in Texas. But for the little-known, magical, and untamed stretch of beach called Boca Chica, that right is curtailed when SpaceX takes flight. Boca Chica uncovers the mesmerizing beauty of this fragile coastline and the fight for free access for its longtime visitors whose memories and spirituality are rooted deep among the sandy shorelines.
