Every Teacher, Principal, Administrator, School Board Member, and Parent Should Watch This Film

In the time of budget cuts and school program reductions this film reminds us that a "balanced education" should be more than touchdowns and slam dunks. This is worth your precious time.

"Against all odds, the students at Dominguez High School set out to put on the school's first theatrical production in more than 20 years: Thornton Wilder's "Our Town." But what does Wilder's famous play about life in rural Grover's Corners have to do with Compton, California? This heartwarming documentary follows the students on their discovery of the power of art and the human spirit. Nominated for an IFP Independent Spirit Award."
