“The Last Class” follows Robert Reich’s final semester teaching “Wealth and Poverty” at UC Berkeley. This film blends Reich’s heartfelt reflections on retiring from a beloved 40+ years teaching career, with his warnings about growing inequalities. The documentary offers a candid, personal look at Reich while expressing his enduring faith in the next generation.
