SALES INFORMATION
We offer the films at three different price points:
Educational License
Educational License for High Schools & Volunteer Organizations*
Individuals & Public Libraries
The educational license grants non-paying public performance rights to
universities, colleges, libraries, high schools and other institutions. It also
entitles you to our DVD return program: for up to four years after purchase, if
your DVD becomes scratched or unusable, simply return the DVD to us and we will
mail you a replacement copy at a cost of $50, including shipping. Please note
that the individual purchase price does not grant public performance rights, including
classroom screenings. It is for home viewing purposes only.
*Contact us if you are not sure if your organization qualifies as a volunteer organization.
