Synopsis:
When a professor with controversial views arrives to speak at a university conference, he is met by his
student chaperon. Her assigned task—getting him
to the auditorium without incident—is disrupted
by some unexpected difficulty. In working out the
situation, the resolution of the professor’s plight
is placed in the hands of a most unlikely problem
solver, who finds his own means of expressing
his viewpoints on the professor’s vile politics.
Honorarium examines in a compelling way what
is and is not required of us in social situations
involving people whose views may be very different
from our own. The director is a local Texas
filmmaker. Featuring our own Alex Sole from the
Austin Jewish Community.
