Description

A high-achieving elementary school just south of downtown Chicago is a lifeline for Black children—until gentrification threatens its closure. As Chicago Public Schools, the mayor, and politicians debate the future of the school, the film brings you inside to meet the students, parents, and educators fighting to save it.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
