Title: Gray Mountain
Description: Hace una semana Samantha Kofer trabajaba en una prestigiosa firma de abogados de Nueva York. Ahora trabaja gratis en una asesoría legal para clientes sin recursos en una pequeña ciudad de Virginia. La caída de Lehman Brothers supuso para ella la pérdida del trabajo, de la seguridad y del futuro. Su mundo no tiene nada que ver con su vida pasada de peces gordos y bonos desorbitados.  En la actualidad se enfrenta a clientes reales con problemas reales en las tierras del carbón, donde la ley es diferente y defender la verdad significa poner en peligro la vida. Su nuevo jefe se dedica a demandar a las compañías mineras por los destrozos medioambientales que están devastando la comarca, y mucha gente lo odia por ello. La vida de Samantha ha dado un giro de 180 grados.

A week ago, Samantha Kofer worked at a prestigious law firm in New York. She now works for a free legal advice for under-qualified clients in a small town in Virginia. The fall of Lehman Brothers meant for her the loss of work, security and the future. Her world has nothing to do with her past life of bigwigs and exorbitant bonuses. She is currently facing real clients with real problems in coal lands, where the law is different and defending the truth means putting life in danger. Her new boss is dedicated to sue the mining companies for the environmental damages that are devastating the region, and many people hate him for it. Samantha's life has taken a 180-degree turn.
