Rows of quiet bookshelves become battlegrounds in this urgent, eye-opening documentary, as librarians in Texas, Florida, and beyond emerge as unlikely defenders of democracy. Director Kim A. Snyder follows these courageous stewards of knowledge as they risk careers and safety to resist sweeping book bans targeting marginalized communities. Exposing the coordinate campaigns behind censorship and the personal toll on those who stand against it, <i>The Librarians</i> serves as both a chronicle of our present culture wars and a rousing call to fierce action to protect our freedoms.
