What's On In January?
Crisanto Street (2020, dir. Paloma Martinez)
Whether it's "New Year, New You" or you're quiet quitting ([link removed]) on resolutions, POV is moving forward into 2023 with another slate of outstanding nonfiction films.
In this month's edition:
* We asked Producer Opal H. Bennett for her highlights from the critically acclaimed POV Shorts' first four seasons ([link removed]) , including the Oscarยฎ-nominated In the Absence ([link removed]) chronicling the 2014 Sewol Ferry Disaster in South Korea and IDA winner, Seahorse ([link removed]) , where a young Yazidi girl wrestles quietly with her traumatic memories of the Mediterranean Sea. POV Shorts Season 5 returns on Monday, February 13th.
* Do Januarys put you in a reflective mood? Well, make a big pot of your favorite tea and check out Time Passages ([link removed]) . Our collection is filled to the brim with touching stories that will have you contemplating the great and small things in life, featuring Portraits and Dreams ([link removed]) that revisits photographs created by Kentucky school children in the 1970s and the place where their photos were made and produced.
* Season 35 has its grand finale on Monday, January 9th with the broadcast premiere of I Didn't See You There ([link removed]) , described by RogerEbert.com ([link removed]) as "funny, sharply observed... an experimental film of great beauty."
The time to stream is now on pov.org ([link removed]) and the PBS app ([link removed]) .
