POV opens their season Tuesday with The Education of Shelby Knox.
Filmmakers Marion Lipschutz and Rose Rosenblatt spoke about the Education at the international public television conference, INPUT, in May. They said they set out to do a story about sex education, but it took them a long time to find the right story to tell.
They eventually heard about Shelby Knox who was working to change the abstinance only sex education in Lubbuck, Texas. The story evolved over three years to include a fight to allow the gay straight alliance to meet at her school.
Knox was interviewed on NOW.
