What's On In January?

Discovering Hidden Stories & Celebrating Cinematic Triumphs 🌟📚

Welcome 2024 with a revolutionary dive into our January showcase, Hidden Syllabus: Learning Beyond the Books ([link removed]) . Journey through myriad and diverse pathways to knowledge, transcending the traditional confines of education with transformative stories and subjects. Films such as Brief Tender Light ([link removed]) (available 1/15), An Act of Worship ([link removed]) , In My Blood It Runs ([link removed]) , and Clash ([link removed]) challenge established norms and ignite the spark of inspiration, demonstrating that true understanding often reaches beyond the classroom and conventional wisdom. Rest assured, the answers won't be found in the back of the book. Hidden Syllabus is co-curated in partnership with Chasing the Dream ([link removed]) , The WNET Group's public media initiative that
delves into issues of poverty, justice, and economic opportunity in America, and generously supported by The JPB Foundation.

Our For Your Consideration ([link removed]) collection highlights some of POV's finest current offerings, celebrated for their exceptional storytelling and critical acclaim. Leading the pack is Between Earth & Sky ([link removed]) , shortlisted in Documentary Short for the 96th Academy Awards®, delving into ecologist Nalini Nadkarni's research on recovery in rainforest canopies. Under G-d ([link removed]) offers an in-depth look at the national Jewish response to the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization U.S. Supreme Court decision. How to Have an American Baby ([link removed]) takes viewers into the enigmatic world of Chinese birth tourism in the United States, revealing a complex global phenomenon. The collection culminates with the January 15th broadcast premiere of Brief Tender Light ([link removed]) ,
which chronicles the transformative experiences of African students at MIT as they balance their ambitions with the challenges of a new cultural landscape.

At POV, we believe in the power of story and its universal accessibility. That's why you can stream all of the films on the POV website ([link removed]) and the PBS App ([link removed]) . For more insights, exclusive content, and filmmaker interviews, connect with us on social media.
