These live-action and animated films will take kids on a trip around the world, to see how people live in dozens of countries. These are documentary and fiction films, but all tell a truth about the world and parts of it we don’t have a chance to see very often.
Ages 11+. Films in Spanish, French, Arabic, and Hebrew are subtitled. This program is largely upbeat, but there are a few films with tough subject matter including poverty and the aftermath of war. A program for mature kids.
