EMPOWERING YOUTH ONE FILM AT A TIME

“The reality for a lot of us here in America is that, while everyone has a voice-- a story-- not all of them are valued equally or given a platform to tell them… Reel Voices taught me to see film not just as a form of art, but as a way of resistance. To say yes, we exist. Yes, we matter. Our stories matter, that they deserve to be listened to and to be seen.”

- Winter Smiley, RV Class of 2016
