Event Details

Join us for a screening of Ramona Diaz's documentary The Learning, which tells the story of four Filipina women who reluctantly leave their families and schools to teach in Baltimore. With their increased salaries, they hope to transform their families' lives back in their impoverished country. But the women also bring idealistic visions of the teacher's craft and of life in America, which soon collide with Baltimore's tough realities. This event is a collaboration with POV, PBS' award-winning nonfiction film series (www.pbs.org/pov).
