“BUILDING THRIVING COMMUNITIES THROUGH RELATIONSHIPS.”

Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Morgan Neville’s latest documentary takes an intimate look at America’s favorite neighbor: Mister Fred Rogers.

A portrait of a man whom we all think we know, this documentary is an emotional and moving film that takes you beyond zip-up cardigans and the land of make-believe, and into the heart of a creative genius, who inspired generations of children with compassion and limitless imagination.

“Love is at the root of everything. All learning, all relationships – love, or the lack of it. The greatest thing we can do is to show someone they’re loved and they’re capable of loving.”

~Fred Rogers.
