Banned Together is a feature documentary film about the current wave of book bans in the United States. It tells the local story of Beaufort, South Carolina, where 97 books are suddenly pulled from their school libraries after two adults threaten to take legal action against the school board. Viewers follow three high school seniors as they work together to fight book bans in Beaufort and then at the state and national levels. This community’s story is interwoven with the larger national landscape of book banning, including interviews with best-selling authors, policymakers, and experts.
