Theirs Is the Kingdom documentary review: art is not a luxury

airs on World Channel stations around the US today; streaming free on PBS.org globally until May 2, 2022; also on Apple TV US/Can

MaryAnn’s quick take: Lovely, gentle look at an artwork honoring the marginalized. A compassionate challenge to cultural assumptions, including those that decenter the poor and insist that art is a luxury, not a necessity.
