Synopsis

In 1971, Katherine Graham was the first female publisher of a major American newspaper, The Washington Post, trying to secure the paper’s long-term financial security by launching on the stock exchange. When its rival The New York Times began publishing The Pentagon Papers – a devastating, classified government report outlining how successive presidents knew that Vietnam had turned into an unwinnable war, but fought on regardless – Graham and her editor Ben Bradlee race against time to catch up and expose the level of cover-up taking place. Their actions launched an unprecedented battle between the media and government, raising issues around the freedom of the press that have once again become extremely pertinent.

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
