At 17, Tara steps into a classroom for the first time and begins a remarkable journey of self-education that takes her from Brigham Young University to Harvard and Cambridge. As she gains knowledge and perspective, she is forced to grapple with the tension between loyalty to her family and the desire to forge her own path. Raw and inspiring, Educated explores the transformative power of learning and the courage it takes to redefine your life.</p><p>Feel free to bring a friend!
