Students nationwide lack a key connection in the trailer for Without a Net: The Digital Divide in America, as debuted exclusively by The Hollywood Reporter.
Directed by Rory Kennedy, the documentary highlights how many schools nationwide do not have access to computers and other electronic devices. These students and educators are on the wrong side of the "digital divide," and the inability to use the internet for schoolwork is putting their futures in jeopardy.
Without a Net is narrated by Jamie Foxx. It screens next at the New York Film Festival.

This year’s New York Film Festival has just unveiled a slew of Special Events to round out its already full-to-bursting lineup, and it includes some late-breaking entries to previously announced sections and a selection of brand new events that are very special indeed. Highlights include a trio of documentary premieres, including Susan Lacy’s “Spielberg” (focused on the eponymous director, with both Lacy and her subject set to appear at the festival), along with Jennifer Lebeau’s Bob Dylan concert film “Trouble No More,” and Susan Froemke’s “The Opera House,” a history of the Metropolitan Opera and a love letter to the art form that will (appropriately enough) screen at the Metropolitan Opera House at Lincoln Center.
Other standouts include four brand-new films from Claude Lanzmann, a sparkling new restoration of G.W. Pabst’s “Pandora’s Box.” Elsewhere, Kate Winslet will be on hand for a career-spanning chat...
