Travel across genres from animation to documentary to narrative and join in a conversation with some of Philadelphia's newest filmmakers and the facilitators who work with them to find their voice through media. Screening highlights include: Restoring La Comunidad, a collaboration between Taller, Congresso, PMA and Big Picture Alliance, uses key words from the students' poetry to explore and interview people about community action. The words were then made into art installations in the community to make people rethink the meaning and significance of social change Selections from the Painted Bride's Trading Tales, a Digital Storytelling Project for teens to create dialogue on violence in Philadelphia. The Yellow Shoes is a love story between a boy and his new shoes from WHYY's Learning Lab. Mendeel produced by high school students in Al-Bustan: Seeds of Culture after school program, explores two Palestinian Muslim girls' experiences wearing the head scarf and their countering of stereotypical images of Arabs/Muslims. The Movement: The History of Philadelphia's Settlement Houses produced by Scribe's 2007 Documentary History Project for Youth crew. Researched, written, shot and edited by 9 youth filmmakers interview local settlement house leaders and participants from The Lighthouse, Lutheran Settlement House, Southwark House, Houston Center, Germantown Settlement, Settlement Music School and Friends Neighborhood Guild share their experiences and reflect on how their work has changed and evolved over time.
