The DocYard Presents: SPEAKING IN TONGUES
The DocYard presents a screening of Ken Schneider and Marcia Jarmel’s film SPEAKING IN TONGUES at the Brattle Theatre at 7pm, followed by a Q&A with this film-making team. Winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature at the SFIFF, this film follows four pioneering families who put their children in public schools where their teachers speak mostly Chinese or Spanish. SPEAKING IN TONGUES follows four diverse kids on a journey to become bilingual at a time when 31 states have passed “English Only” laws. This charming story will challenge you to rethink the skills that Americans need in the 21st century.Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle Street
