“Seats at the Table” is a poignant and important film that illuminates the bond that can develop among young people having a shared experience – in this case, college students and young men in a correctional center studying Russian literature. The film is an excellent catalyst for discussion on empathy and human rights, and a wonderful tribute to an imaginative and trail-blazing teacher.
