THE LIBRARIANS

In our politically polarized era, librarians across the US have found their profession under siege as an unprecedented wave of book banning hits Texas, Florida, and beyond. As the crisis escalates, they join forces as unlikely defenders on the frontlines of democracy. Flanked by students and concerned community members, the librarians join ranks to fight a new threat that draws global parallels, contextualizing the dangerous markings of fascism in a chilling cautionary tale.
