    This movie looks incredible – hope they get enough people to sign up! Thanks for the heads up WSB – I reserved my tickets and sent a heads up to some friends.

    We have reserved four tickets and are telling friends in hopes of more joining us. Looks like it’s going to screen. We have been in touch with the producers of this film and it is a lovely survey of the landscape of girls’ education as a means to combat global poverty. Looking forward to seeing the whole thing on the big screen in our ‘hood.

    (Confidential to “krouse”, the organizer of this Gathr, we would love to get in touch–we are producing a documentary that covers some of this same terrain.)

Sorry, comment time is over.
