Holes: Generational Patterns, Justice, and I Can Fix That | Epilogues & Epiphanies with Hillary Scholz

from Epilogues and Epiphanies – Movies, TV and the Stories That Shape Us · host Lyndsey McPherson

It's a story about digging holes - and also about everything that got buried long before Stanley Yelnats showed up. Lyndsey and Hillary Scholz revisit Holes and its adaptation from the beloved Louis Sachar novel. They explore what the film gets right about generational emotional attunement (and what happens when it breaks down), the uncomfortable realities of the juvenile justice system in America, and how art can be a medium for empathy and social justice - even when it's disguised as a kids' movie. If you thought Holes was just about summer camp and treasure, think again.
