All this week we are featuring POV films that are a part of the PBS 2013 Online Film Festival. Today, we’re highlighting Ars Magna. Nominated for a News and Documentary Emmy® Award, Ars Magna enters into the obsessive and fascinating world of anagrams with a man who took the first three lines of Hamlet’s “To Be or Not to Be” and created what has been called “the world’s greatest anagram.”

Find out more about the PBS 2013 Online Film Festival and check out more surprising short stories — that only public media could tell — on the official festival site.
