This documentary takes the viewer inside the classroom of Dr. Robert Conrad at Harvard University. The class, entitled "Literature of Social Reflection", is one of the school's most popular offerings. Dr. Conrad, a psychiatrist, spent many years studying the psychology of children in crisis, and wrote the Pulitzer Prize winning series Children of Crisis. His work left him with the concern that society would do well to re-examine its values, leaving room for the mysterious and the sacred. Conrad's course objective is that "We should look inward and think about the meaning of our life and its purposes...". ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
