Hugh Bonneville at Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
Jesus: Countdown to Calvary Airs noon and 6pm Sunday, April 1 Regardless of one’s religious beliefs, there is no denying the impact Jesus of Nazareth has had on world history, particularly the events surrounding his death. In Jesus: Countdown to Calvary Hugh Bonneville, well-known actor and a Cambridge theology graduate, travels to Jerusalem in search of answers. Meeting with academic experts and spiritual leaders, Bonneville deconstructs the week leading up to Jesus’s death and untangles the complex factors that resulted in his crucifixion. Exploring questions that have provided more than 2000 years of debate, the documentary offers fascinating insight from both religious and historical angles.

Keep Your Head Up/Touch the Sky 8pm Wednesday, April 3 Also 4/6 1am, 4am Henry Louis Gates, Jr. looks at the last 50 years of African-American history—from Stokely Carmichael to Barack Obama, James Brown to Beyoncé—charting the remarkable progress made and raising hard questions about the obstacles that remain. The series begins at the point where the story we Americans tell about ourselves becomes complicated. Almost every schoolchild today learns about the civil rights movement—about how our nation moved itself forward, against the will of many, out of a shameful past. Yet what has happened since? And here, the series steps out of the sanctified past and into the complex, raw, conflicted present. Barack Obama sat in the White House and African Americans wield influence in every domain, from business to academia to the arts. At the same time, black people are incarcerated at six times the rate of whites and face financial inequality, while whites now have 13 times the wealth of blacks. Many of our schools and neighborhoods are more segregated than they were in 1965, and police killings of unarmed black men recur with tragic frequency—inspiring radically different responses within black and white communities. How did we end up here, when half a century ago racial equality seemed imminent—even inevitable?

Hannibal in the Alps Airs 7pm Tuesday, April 10 Also 4/12 1am, 4am
Hannibal, one of history’s most famous generals, achieved what the Romans thought to be impossible. With a vast army of 30,000 troops, 15,000 horses, and 37 war elephants, he crossed the mighty Alps in only 16 days to launch an attack on Rome from the north. For more than 2,000 years, nobody has been able to prove which of the four possible routes Hannibal took across the Alps, and no physical evidence of Hannibal’s army has ever been found… until now. In Secrets of the Dead: Hannibal in the Alps, a team of experts—explorers, archaeologists, and scientists—combine state-of-the-art technology, ancient texts, and a recreation of the route itself to prove conclusively where Hannibal’s army made it across the Alps—and exactly how and where he did it.

Thalia Fortescue Massie, the troubled young wife of a navy lieutenant, claimed that a group of Hawaiians had raped her on the Ala Moana, a lonely beach road leading from Waikiki to Honolulu.

Bill Nye: Science Guy Airs 9pm Wednesday, April 18 Also 4/20 2:30am
Bill Nye is on a mission to stop the spread of anti-scientific thought and action. Once the host of a popular kids’ show and now the CEO of the Planetary Society, he’s leading a mission to launch LightSail, a satellite propelled by sunlight, while in turn fulfilling the legacy of his late professor and Planetary Society cofounder Carl Sagan. In addition to taking off his signature “Science Guy” lab coat, Nye has started taking on those who deny the importance of science, from prominent creationist Ken Ham to climate change skeptic, meteorologist and occasional Fox News commentator Joe Bastardi. Nye goes head-to-head to advocate for the scientific community and its invaluable findings. Nye’s focus never strays far from what initially propelled him to fame: education. With intimate and exclusive access, as well as plenty of wonder and whimsy, Bill Nye: Science Guy is a behind-the-scenes portrait of the “Science Guy,” who continues to inspire millennials to participate in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). In addition to Nye, the film features Neil deGrasse Tyson, Ann Druyan and many other notable voices in the field.

NOVA Wonders Airs 8pm Wednesdays, beginning April 25 This new series reports from the frontiers of science. With its emphasis on provocative and unanswered questions, NOVA Wonders follows researchers on the winding paths of uncertainty and the unknown. NOVA Wonders reveals how far we’ve come in our search for answers, how we managed to get here and the remarkable scientists who are transforming our world and the future.
What Are Animals Saying? Airs 8pm Wednesday, April 25 Also 4/27 1am, 4am; 4/29 mdnt; 4/30 noon
From singing whales and howling wolves to chirping birds and clicking dolphins, the world is filled with the exotic vocalizations of other creatures. But what are they saying? While we believe language sets us apart, scientists are finally beginning to unravel the codes of animal communication. Some animals demonstrate they can learn our language—like Chaser the dog, who recognizes hundreds of words, and Kanzi the gorilla, who understands some English spoken in context. But the question scientists are asking now is whether we can learn theirs. NOVA Wonders travels around the globe, where researchers are deciphering an amazing array of clues that reveal how animals share information critical to their survival—from a cacophony of ultrasonic bat squeaks to spider thumps and mice mating songs. Will we one day be able to write the bat dictionary, or decode the hidden sign language of chimps? And what can these findings tell us about the roots of our own language?

INDEPENDENT LENS
True Conviction Airs 8pm Saturday, April 30 After serving a combined 60 years in prison for crimes they did not commit, three recently exonerated Texans—Christopher Scott, Johnnie Lindsey and Steven Phillips—join forces to form the unlikeliest of investigative teams, on a mission to help wrongfully convicted prisoners obtain freedom like they did. In Jamie Meltzer’s hardboiled yet rousing documentary, brotherly bonds are formed out of shared hardships—lengthy prison sentences in a state that executes more inmates than any other. Through the steadfast fieldwork of this grassroots “dream team,” these Dallas detectives are transforming decades of hard time into a new career helping others just like them. Focusing on the cases of Max Soffar, a death row inmate of 35 years who was forced into a triple murder confession as a young man, and Isaiah Hill, sentenced to life in prison on aggravated assault charges after refusing a plea bargain, the trio logs in hundreds of miles digging up fresh evidence on behalf of their incarcerated clients. Through tenacity, hope and determination these freedom fighters work together to rebuild broken lives and families as they campaign to fix the criminal justice system while still fighting demons of their own.

You Made It Happen! Our most sincere gratitude for all you do We just completed another very successful pledge drive and would like to sincerely thank everyone who provided support. Your generous contributions help us continue to air programs that celebrate the beauty of Montana and our independent spirit. Programs that teach us and take us places we have never been before. Most importantly, they are programs that are made available for everyone to experience. We know that a pledge drive can interrupt your regular routine but we hope that you were able to enjoy a concert you would be otherwise unable to attend or maybe you were able to explore a new part of the state from the comfort of your own home. We are sincerely grateful to everyone who pledged during the March drive.
Thank you! If you meant to pledge but have not yet, there is still time. Go to our website at www.montanapbs.org or please call us at 1-800-426-8243.

Nature Cat Airs 3pm Weekdays Grounded in a natural science curriculum, Nature Cat is designed to encourage children ages 3-8 to go outside and explore the outdoors, while learning about a variety of scientific topics along the way. Nature Cat follows Fred, a house cat who dreams of exploring the great outdoors. Like many of today’s kids, Nature Cat is eager and enthusiastic about outside activities, but is at times intimidated by them. With the help of his animal friends, Nature Cat embarks on action-packed adventures that include exciting missions full of nature investigation, “aha” discovery moments and humor, all while inspiring children to go outside and “play the show.”

Lidia’s Kitchen Airs 5pm, 10:30pm Monday and Friday on MontanaPBS Create In season five of Lidia’s Kitchen, Emmy®-winning TV host, restaurateur and author Lidia Bastianich warmly invites viewers into her kitchen to share her extensive understanding of how to create delicious Italian meals for a variety of occasions, whether it’s dinner parties, game day events, or family brunch. Throughout the 26-part series, Lidia provides simple and quick recipes that are a must for weeknight dinners and that deliver a burst of flavor, such as her penne rigate in vodka sauce, or an arugula salad with porcini mushroom and shavings of cheese. She also shares how to make cold winter nights warmer with a couple of her favorite dishes: a colorful barley, kale and butternut squash risotto that uses barley instead of rice, and a turkey meatloaf with mushroom sauce. Additionally, Lidia focuses on what some would say is the best part of a meal—dessert—and prepares three of her favorites: limoncello tiramisu made with delicious limoncello zabaglione, grilled fruit, and chocolate anise biscotti made with a shot of espresso. Lidia’s approach to Italian cooking is simple: find fresh, seasonal ingredients, use as few as you need for a delicious dish, and elaborate as little as possible.

Ben Hur Airs 8pm Friday, April 7 Also 4/8 11:57am
Judah Ben-Hur lives as a rich Jewish prince and merchant in Jerusalem at the beginning of the 1st century. Together with the new governor his old friend Messala arrives as commanding officer of the Roman legions. At first they are happy to meet after a long time but their different politic views separate them. During the welcome parade a roof tile falls down from Judah’s house and injures the governor. Although Messala knows they are not guilty, he sends Judah to the galleys and throws his mother and sister into prison. But Judah swears to come back and take revenge.
