JANUARY HIGHLIGHTS
Let the Little Light Shine (2022)
New year, new momentum.
As 2025 begins, the streets are humming with possibility - and POV is right there in the action. Jump into We the People: Democracy Lives Here ([link removed]) , where Baltimore's youngest mayor takes on gun violence, Native Hawaiian mothers and daughters guard their sacred mountain from destruction, and activists from New York to Florida fight for transit equity and religious freedom. These aren't just stories of resistance - they're blueprints for change, showing what happens when communities decide to rewrite the rules.
Start your year with even more groundbreaking films. Stream unseen ([link removed]) , where a blind, undocumented student shatters expectations while reimagining what cinema can be. Catch The Mole Agent ([link removed]) before January 25 - trust us, you've never seen a spy story quite like this one. Plus, mark your calendars for the rebroadcast of game-changing films about disability and identity: I Didn't See You There ([link removed]) (January 11), Eat Your Catfish ([link removed]) and Is There Anybody Out There? ([link removed]) (January 18) (check local listings).
And speaking of fresh starts, raise a glass to our POV Shorts team - A Swim Lesson ([link removed]) and Until He's Back ([link removed]) just landed on the Oscar® shortlist, proving once again that sometimes the biggest stories come in small packages.
