Free stream our incredible documentary now! 🧏  This unconventional documentary presents the question, “What does it mean to listen?” 

Watch "The Tuba Thieves" on the PBS App or PBS.org for the month of July. 🎺🎷

Between 2011 and 2013, tubas were stolen from high schools across Southern California. While reporters focused on the thieves, Director Alison O'Daniel, who is hard of hearing, was curious about the impact on the students and school communities. She wondered how these thefts were altering the sound of the bands, which ultimately led her to question the role of sound itself and what it means to listen.
