Reel Youth is a not-for-profit, media empowerment program supporting young people to create and distribute films about their visions for a more just and sustainable world.

Reel Youth works with youth-serving organizations to provide mobile stop motion animation, video production , and Reel Youth Film Festival programs that create and distribute messages young people most want to share with the world.

The Reel Youth Film Festival is a celebration of short films made by people 19 years and under. Insightful and entertaining, the festival collects films from across Canada, the US and abroad to put together an engaging evening of some of the best youth filmmaking today.
