Today on Your Call: What movie changed the way you understand the world?

On today's Your Call, a few days before “that other award show” we will announce your nominations for the film that most powerfully changed the way you understand the world.  Documentaries, features, shorts, or even animation. Which movie pulled you into a reality different from your own?  Or maybe transformed the way you think?  Email your nominations to feedback@yourcallradio.org.  Then join us at 10 to hear about great reality-based movies you might want to check out for yourself.  How do movies change us?  It’s Your Call with Rose Aguilar, and you.
