No Small Matter is the first feature documentary to explore the most overlooked, underestimated, and powerful force for good in America today: early childhood education. Through poignant stories and surprising humor, the film lays out the overwhelming evidence for the importance of the first five years, and reveals how our failure to act on that evidence has resulted in an everyday crisis for American families, and a slow motion catastrophe for the country. Investments in early childhood development build a strong foundation for the workforce development pipeline and support workforce productivity decades later. (R.
