An American Pastoral

An American Pastoral chronicles the struggle of engaged citizens to determine the future of their local public schools. In 2023, voters will choose between three slates: one endorsed by the Democratic party and two competing Republican lists. In this off-year election, turnout will be low. In this divisive climate, voter education is more important than ever. After many months of campaigning, the choice is now up to voters. The mandate of those elected to the school board is four years: an eternity. At stake – and everyone here knows it – is the future of public education. At least to start with.

PLEASE BE NOTIFIED that pay-what-you-want price tickets will not be available at the “Romuva” cinema.
