Armchair Travel Marathon: The Upholders In-Person

Join us for three documentaries featuring workers devoted to upholding the standards and ethics of their professions. In WWII-era Europe, art curators and museum workers defend objects from looting and destruction. In Myanmar, nuns uphold their spiritual and humanitarian ideals. In Australia, physicians draw upon the Hippocratic Oath when treating refugees detained in harsh conditions.
