A note from the host;
Each month we screen documentaries that remind us that these films are more than just educational tools — they’re works of art. Our goal is to share unique and often overlooked documentaries that can move us, spark conversation, and help us connect with one another on a deeper level.

KIOS presents Docs at the Dock
Grace and Virginia are young San Diego twins who speak unlike anyone else. With little exposure to the outside world, the two girls have created a private form of communication that’s an amalgam of the distinctive English dialects they hear at home. Jean-Pierre Gorin’s polyphonic nonfiction investigation of this phenomenon looks at the family from a variety of angles, with the director taking on the role of a sort of sociological detective. It’s a delightful and absorbing study of words and faces, mass media and personal isolation, and America’s odd margins.
Keep an eye our for upcoming free documentaries at the Dock in the Ashton Building!
