Sentenced: Movie Screening benefiting Indy Reads

Join us on Wednesday, March 11, 2026 from 4pm-7pm for this exclusive screening which includes a post-movie discussion session. The event, held at IMAX Theater at the Indiana State Museum, will benefit Indy Reads' literacy programs.

Sentenced is an immersive and vulnerable exploration of the epidemic of illiteracy through a series of braided character-driven stories. Produced and narrated by four-time NBA basketball champion Stephen Curry and filmed from the point of view of adults and children who have never learned to read, the film is a forceful yet tender tale of how literacy can free people from the cycles of generational poverty. See trailer below.
