What's On In May?

This May, POV proudly presents three exceptional collections featuring new favorites alongside timeless classics.

Explore Crossing Horizons: Asian and Pacific Islander Visions and Voices ([link removed]) featuring soulful and steadfast odysseys within Asian and Pacific Islander communities. From the ground-level urgency of the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic in Wuhan Wuhan ([link removed]) to the scrutiny of academic pressures in a high-performing school in Accepted ([link removed]) , to the matriarchal bonds and activism of Hawaiian mother-daughters in Standing Above the Clouds ([link removed]) , this collection captures the essential stories threading through the lives of those pushing for change and understanding.

Mothers of Many Worlds ([link removed]) brings to life poignant moments from the multidimensional worlds of motherhood. Experience the intertwined joy and sorrow of becoming a mother at age 50 in the face of loss in Love & Stuff, ([link removed]) the desperate quest of an Iranian family for a safer future in Love Child ([link removed]) , and the touching journey of a Polish mother finding solace in nurturing a baby squirrel after her son moves abroad to study in My Duduś ([link removed]) . These documentaries uplift the profound impact of mothering across cultures and challenges.

Rediscover some of POV's most influential documentaries with Greatest Hits ([link removed]) . This selection highlights two of the seven films that made IndieWire's Best 52 documenetaries ([link removed]) of the 21st century, including Faya Dayi ([link removed]) , a mesmerizing look at Ethiopia’s khat trade, and The Mole Agent ([link removed]) , a touching spy story set within a retirement home.
