Stream the Emmy Nominated The Librarians

The Librarians made its world premiere at Sundance and continued on to SXSW and Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. The documentary has been Emmy nominated for Exceptional Merit In Documentary Filmmaking and explores censorship, book banning and the freedom to read. As an unprecedented wave of book banning is sparked in Texas, Florida, and beyond, librarians under siege join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy, flanked by concerned community members and young readers. The Librarians is a cautionary tale and rallying cry for freedom – told through the personal experiences of librarians under siege and the everyday patriots who join their ranks in defense of the books.
