INDIA 1932. A FUSE IS LIT.

MASTERPIECE: INDIAN SUMMERS The Raj, romance, and revolution rule in the sweeping new nine-part MASTERPIECE series INDIAN SUMMERS. In 1932, the height of privilege was to be British in India, and the high point was the summer season at the hard-partying colonial retreat of Simla in the Himalayan foothills. Rude reality intrudes on this spectacular paradise in INDIAN SUMMERS, starring Julie Walters as the glamorous and wily doyenne of Simla society.

MEET AMERICA’S MOST LEGENDARY FILMMAKER AMERICAN EXPERIENCE: WALT DISNEY Mon-Tue, Sept 14-15 | 8pm

WALT DISNEY was uniquely adept at art, as well as commerce, a master filmmaker who harnessed the power of technology and storytelling. This new film examines Disney’s complex life and enduring legacy, featuring rare archival footage from the Disney vaults, scenes from some of his greatest films, and interviews with the biographers, animators, artists, and designers who turned his dream of Disneyland into reality.

Sundays

8pm Sept 27Nov 22

Set during the twilight era of the British Raj, the series explores the collision of the high-living English ruling class with the local people agitating for Indian independence.

As the drama unfolds, the two sides alternately clash and merge in an intricate game of power, rivalries, and passion.

Also starring in this lavish production are Henry Lloyd-Hughes as Ralph Whelan, the cooly ambitious Private Secretary to the Viceroy of India; Jemima West as Whelan’s sister who returns to Simla alone with her child and finds herself drawn to Aafrin (Nikesh Patel), a Junior Clerk to the Viceroy’s office; Aysha Kala (in photo) as Sooni, Aafrin’s severe and beautiful sister; Roshan Seth as Darius, Aafrin’s father, a gentle man and veteran of the Great War, and Lillete Dubey as Aafrin’s mother, Roshana.

Stories of promises, secrets, politics, power, sex, and love play out as the British Raj falters and a nation opens its eyes to the possibilities of freedom.

The Living Legacy: Black Colleges in the 21st Century

Before the civil rights movement, African Americans were largely barred from whitedominated institutions of higher education.

Beyond the Blackboard: Building Character in Public Schools

In the 1940s, British headmaster Kurt Hahn set up a wilderness school to teach the skills young men needed to survive WWII: leadership, persistence, and working together. Fifty years later, Hahn’s ideas inspired the founding of a network of U.S. public schools that practice “Expeditionary Learning” and whose students continue to outperform their peers in test scores, graduation rates, and problem-solving ability. What can we learn from their success?
