Tomorrow’s Hope (2021)

Tomorrow’s Hope is about The Beethoven Project, a school in the middle of the South Side of Chicago and one that tried to — as the title says — give hope to students who otherwise had none. It eventually became a project called Educare and this film is about three students from the first class: Crystal, who is about to go to college with the dream of being a psychiatrist; Jalen, who hopes to be a pediatrician and Jamal, who has a future in music.

Directed by Thomas A. Morgan (Storied StreetsScrum) and produced by The Saul Zaentz Charitable Foundation, this movie is just 45 minutes but instills a promise for tomorrow. For a program that began in the largest public housing project in America, this program has found committed teachers and students willing to put in the work to not only transform their lives, but the lives of everyone around them.
