Description: The motivation behind the film is simple – over 43 million Americans can't read well enough to get a job and support a family. But the film posits there are actually no illiterate children, just children who haven't learned to read yet. Sentenced exposes this tragic reality and presents a solution for overcoming failing systems and preventing kids from disappearing into society's margins.
