We often see stories of students trying to graduate high school. But what happens after they move on from high school? BEYOND GRADUATION explores the possible paths for young people through short films produced by five up-and-coming Latinx filmmakers. A co-production of WORLD Channel and the National Association of Latino Independent Producers.
