90 min. Film In the summer of 1963, Flint, Michigan is home to the Watsons, a close knit family made up of Daniel and Wilona Watson, and their three kids, 15-yr-old juvenile delinquent Byron, nerdy 11-yr-old Kenny and eight-year-old adorable sister Joetta. When Byron's antics go over the top, his parents realize enugh is enough and they decide the family needs a dose of Grandma Sands' no nonsense approach in Birmingham, Alabama.
30 min. Workshop At the conclusion of the screening of the film, please join Walden Media's Vice President of Education, Randy Testa as he discusses the adaptation of Christopher Paul Curtis' Newbery Award and Coretta Scott King award-winning novel for the screen and how its themes resonate with today's audiences, during this 50th anniversary of numerous Civil Rights milestones.
