Staff Pick of the Week


Little Women


Ramona Marozas
Multiplatform Producer

"Growing up, I can recall sitting with the women in my family watching Little Women; we were definitely crying because of Beth. From a classic novel to the big screen to PBS's TV series, there have been so many takes on this classic and I cannot wait to dive into PBS's version!"

POV "About Love"
Monday, August 10 at 9:00pm 

Three generations of the Phadke family live together in their home in Mumbai. When the youngest daughter turns the camera towards her family, the personal becomes political as power structures within the family become visible, and eventually unravel. Cruel and comic in equal measure, the film shows the vagaries of affection across generations.
