called A Path Appears and will be airing on PBS starting in January 2015.
This new documentary series is from the creators of the groundbreaking and #1 New York Times best-selling book, film series, and multi-platform media engagement initiative Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide, which aired to international acclaim in late 2012 on PBS and throughout 2013 around the world and engaged tens of millions of viewers globally.
Traveling with intrepid reporter Nicholas Kristof, Sheryl WuDunn and A-list celebrity advocates including Malin Akerman, Mia Farrow, Ronan Farrow, Jennifer Garner, Regina Hall, Ashley Judd, Blake Lively, Eva Longoria and Alfre Woodard, A Path Appears is a unique and essential documentary about making a difference. Equal in urgency and compassion to Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide, this new series uncovers the harshest forms of gender-based oppression and human rights violations, as well as the effective solutions being implemented to combat them. The stories examine the issues of sex trafficking, gender-based violence, teen pregnancy, education and early childhood intervention, and the ways in which societal ills all stem from the common root of crippling poverty and the lack of resources and options available to those in need.
The documentary series is produced by Show of Force in association with ITVS. For more information,
