Independent Lens on PBS’s COVE
Interested in watching full-length episodes of Independent Lens and your other favorite PBS series online? Look no further—PBS recently launched its new video player: COVE (Comprehensive Online Video Ecosystem).
Like the iTunes’ interface, COVE allows users to flip through content horizontally across the screen in a series of stacked images.
The player also features a search engine that locates material by topic or program title; “most watched” and “most emailed” video links at the bottom of the screen; and buttons for sharing and e-mailing videos or buying copies on DVD.
Select full-length episodes of Independent Lens will be available the day after broadcast for seven days. Other program-related video––such as trailers and video extras––will also be available.
JOURNALS OF A WILY SCHOOL, which looks at the life of a young pickpocket in Kolkata, India, is currently available.
Visit COVE this Wednesday to watch POWER PATHS, which depicts the struggle Native American tribes and their allies face in producing solar and wind energy.
Upcoming Screenings

Community Cinema selections are screened in over 50 locations throughout the United States. In March, Community Cinema presents Dirt! The Movie, directed by Bill Benenson and Eugene Rosow.
It’s under our feet and under our fingernails, but what is it? And how did it get there? Inspired by William Bryant Logan’s acclaimed book Dirt: The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth, find out how industrial farming, mining, and urban development have led us toward cataclysmic droughts, starvation, floods, and climate change. Dirt is a part of everything we eat, drink, and breathe. Which is why we should stop treating it like, well … dirt.
