WAYS TO VIEW THE FILM

  1. LIVE: The Duty Free team can provide a link to the film for your school to host a screening through Zoom or another suitable platform

  2. LIVE: The Duty Free team can fully produce the live event for your school through the use of their technical producer (+$150).

  3. ON-DEMAND: The Duty Free Team can provide a password-protected webpage for an agreed upon period of time for your registered audience members to watch the film.

WAYS TO USE THE FILM WITHIN YOUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY:

  1. If you have two hours:

    1. Screen the film in class or a community meeting and use the included toolkit to facilitate powerful small group discussions about the issues of economic insecurity, ageism, and intergenerational care.

  2. If you have two weeks:

    1. Host a virtual movie night for your larger school community. Examine the issues in the context of your own community in class and encourage families to discuss the issues at home using our provided family discussion guide. 

  3. If you have two months:

    1. Create a Project-Based Learning unit around the film. Allow students to do a deep dive into one of the issues addressed and to propose possible solutions to a panel of classmates or local experts.

SCREENING DETAILS

To host a screening, please choose either the Live Event or On Demand Viewing option. As a team, we prefer the live option as it enables viewers to directly respond to the film in real time. But, we understand if your audience is unable to gather for an hour and a half and would prefer to watch the film at leisure.

The Duty Free Team will provide:

  1. The feature-length film.

  2. Marketing materials including outreach language, logos, and posters.

  3. Educational note taking guide, lesson plan with discussion questions, student fact sheet, and family discussion guide.  

  4. Pre-recorded educational Q&A with Director Sian-Pierre Regis and protagonist Rebecca Danigelis. Please inquire about a LIVE Q&A.
