Housed in an 18th century estate, a kind of Hogwarts without the sorcery, school life embraces tradition and modernity. For John, rock music is just another subject alongside Math, Scripture and Latin, taught in a collaborative and often hilarious fashion. For his wife Amanda, the key to connecting with children is the book, and she uses all means to snare the young minds. For nearly half a century these two have shaped thousands of minds, but now the unthinkable looms: what would retirement mean? What will keep them young if they leave?
"As charming, intimate and warm-hearted an observational documentary as you’d ever want to see." Kenneth Turan, LA Times
