"The Secret Song" is an immersive view into the final chapter of Doug Goodkin’s 45-year career teaching music to children in San Francisco. In what could have been a glorious celebration of art and community, the veteran teacher finds his efforts to instill a sense of belonging interrupted by the pandemic. Covid’s surprise entrance to Goodkin’s final year makes visible the value of improvisation in navigating real-world challenges.
