Make A Circle

Thu, Sep 11 7:00 P.M. NH World (11.3)  

From an award-winning filmmaking team, MAKE A CIRCLE follows a group of child care providers who are determined to change a child care system in which "parents can't afford to pay and teachers can't afford to stay." With a mix of humor, outrage, and passion, MAKE A CIRCLE captures the unfolding stories of Patricia, a leader of a new union for child care providers, as she fights on behalf of a largely immigrant workforce; Charlotte, a family child care provider who tirelessly lifts up the low-income families in her care; and Anne, the director of a large preschool, who finds novel ways to value and support her teachers when jobs at Starbucks are offering higher pay. Within their stories are interludes that offer a cinematic glimpse into the unique, imaginative world of young children. The film culminates as thousands of child care union members march on their state capitol demanding better working conditions just as their contract is set to expire. Weaving together the magic they create in the classroom, the struggles they endure at home, and their unwavering activism for their profession, MAKE A CIRCLE is a moving portrait of life as an early childhood educator and a promising blueprint for an early care and education system that benefits everyone.
