Film Screening of The Librarians In-Person
Indie Lens Pop-Up, presented by ITVS, INDEPENDENT LENS, and the Lithgow Library will host a special screening of “The Librarians," featuring a discussion after the screening. The documentary follows a courageous network of besieged librarians as they unite to examine how book restriction policies are shaping library collections.
From Oscar-nominated Director and Producer Kim A. Snyder ("Death By Numbers," “Newtown,” “Us Kids”) and Executive Producer Sarah Jessica Parker, “The Librarians” takes viewers from Texas to Florida and beyond, where local libraries have become unexpected battlegrounds in a national struggle over parental control, intellectual freedom, and democracy itself. The film captures the courage and resilience of the everyday heroes, librarians, as well as concerned parents and students flanking them, who have become first responders in the fight for the freedom to read, standing defiantly against censorship at all costs.
