Every year POV assembles 16-20 films to broadcast nationally on PBS from June – October, and part of its mission is to lend out films for free screenings, nationwide. There are also free resources to accompany each film, including a discussion guide, lesson plan, and reading list. These films address a wide-range of topics, from LGBT issues, to the child welfare system, to art, mental illness, the war in Syria, and many others. More than 80 titles are available through their lending library.
