Class of '27. A new generation in three forgotten places

Description

In Class of ’27, three diverse filmmaking teams set out across rural America to explore the lives of our youngest citizens and tell the stories of families and communities coming together– against the odds— to guide their children into successful graduates of the Class of ’27. “A moving documentary which aims to expand the current narratives surrounding rural poverty in America.”– The Atlantic “These unforgettable films, drawn from across the United States, show a side of America that is rarely seen — the daily struggles and triumphs of children and their families in rural low-income communities.”– Hirokazu Yoshikawa, Professor, NYU.
