Do you want to use POV documentaries to get people talking about important social issues?
Host sneak previews of POV’s fall films before they premiere on PBS!
POV helps hundreds of communities share documentaries about social issues each year.
Here’s how:
- Register: Log in to our Community Network.

Included in our fall slate of documentaries are soldiers at war and at home, in Armadillo and Where Soldiers Come From; political activists who cross the line into law-breaking and authorities who may be crossing their own lines to catch them, in Better This World and If a Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front; Chinese workers caught in the largest human migration in history, in Last Train Home; and Filipino teachers seeking a better life by braving America’s urban schools, in The Learning.
