Screening 'Youth Unstoppable'

  • Oak Park Public Library 834 Lake Street Oak Park, IL, 60301 United States (map)

“Youth Unstoppable” is an award-winning film documenting the youth climate crisis movement. This film screening is the kick-off for “It’s Our Future,” a project developed to equip youth from Oak Park, River Forest and beyond to advocate for climate crisis solutions and their futures.

“Youth Unstoppable” takes us inside the rise of the Global Youth Climate Movement. Slater Jewell-Kemker was 15 when she began documenting the untold stories of youth on the front lines of climate change who refused to let their futures slip away. Over the course of 11 years and set against stunning visuals of a planet in crisis, “Youth Unstoppable” follows the evolution of a diverse network of youth rising up to shape the world they will live in. “Youth Unstoppable” premiered at Michael Moore's invite-only Traverse City Film Festival, going on to screen at dozens of festivals around the world and garnering eight awards.
