Hell’s Half Mile Film Series is proud to partner with the Bay County Library System for a special screening of the powerful new documentary The Librarians.
As an unprecedented wave of book banning sweeps across Texas, Florida, and beyond, The Librarians follows librarians on the front lines as unlikely defenders of intellectual freedom, free access to information, and First Amendment rights.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kim A. Snyder (Newtown, Us Kids, Death By Numbers), the film reveals how librarians are becoming first responders in the fight for democracy, facing harassment, threats, and mounting pressure as censorship efforts intensify nationwide.
From school board meetings to library systems under siege, The Librarians is a timely, urgent, and deeply human story about who controls ideas, and why it matters.
