A pair of local filmmakers hope to unravel truth from fiction regarding a fabled Statesboro building. Brian Graves, a communications professor at Georgia Southern University, and Jake Taylor, a college senior, unveiled a project Monday that attempts to address the somewhat mysterious history of the long-abandoned meat packing plant on Packinghouse Road. The duo presented a 20-minute film, titled “The Packing House,” to members of the Bulloch County Historical Society during a group meeting at RJ’s Steakery.
