A preview was shown here at the Breakthrough Learning in a Digital Age forum at Google headquarters.
In the preview of the documentary, director Davis Guggenheim takes a dramatic and emotional look at how low-income students and families in the District of Columbia are desperately trying to navigate the public school options that will give them the best chance of achieving academic success and breaking the cycle of poverty."
