Malgorzata L @RT81566868 17h Saw it at MDAGF in Gdynia, and I can't stop thinking about it. Shocking and thought-provoking. It made me angry and sad at the same time, as this is not what I've imagined librarian's work to look like in the XXI century.

We must protect the right to read and learn about ideas, topics, events, and people of all kinds. Perhaps the ones we most need to protect are the ones that make us uncomfortable. We have the right to limit what our own children are exposed to, but we absolutely do not have the right to put those same restrictions on other people's children. I thank God my parents allowed me the freedom to read a wide range of books growing up. I thank God for the libraries and the librarians who opened my world and provided those books.

I streamed it FREE on YouTube via PBS. Please watch it. It's relevant even if you dislike reading and/or books. You think you know, but you probably seriously don't know what's been going on. I'm close to my libraries. I know they've been under scrutiny and fire. But I did not know the extremes certain political groups and individuals have gone to. This isn't recent. It's been building. And it is ongoing. See more William K. @Koolbill Feb 5 Fabulous with a scary and timely message. See more lizzy Jan 20 This film highlights the clear and present danger we face in the USA right now. "That Librarian" and all the librarians that hold books as a guiding light for the rest of the world are my heroes. The vitriol that has been directed toward these courageous folks is reprehensible and needs more daylight to shine on it. We must learn from history in order NOT to repeat it.

Very impactful film. See more Read all reviews
