Concord’s Secret History. Premiere Afternoon Screening
April 14 @ 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Free
April 14, 2:30-4:30 PM: The documentary reveals a long-suppressed secret, set in Concord, Massachusetts—the birthplace of the American Revolution, where the first shots were fired on April 19, 1775.
While Concord is often celebrated for its role in the fight for freedom, few are aware of the untold stories that extend beyond its borders. The film also explores hidden narratives from both Medford and Harvard University, offering a richer, more complete picture of the region’s colonial past. The premiere will take place in Concord on April 12, 2025, followed by distribution to over 500 PBS member stations across the United States via PBS+.
After the screening, the filmmakers and historians involved in the project will participate in a facilitated talk-back, providing an opportunity for deeper engagement and discussion.
