Elementary Programs

Reel Focus consists of five short film programs. Study guides assist teachers in preparing their class for post film discussion and activities which help tie it to the curriculum.

Feature Focus promotes an in-depth development of media literacy and critical thinking skills, while broadening cultural awareness and global understanding. Feature films may be followed by a Q&A and viewing guides for classroom integration.

What
people
are
saying
“The Reel 2 Real International Youth Jury is an opportunity to see film through a new lens. You are exposed to movies you wouldn’t otherwise see: foreign, local, feature, and short. By watching with a critical eye and discussing with fellow jury members, film takes on a whole new dimension.”

Saskia Vaisey,
Grade 11

“It was different from being just a passive viewer… [T]he result is that we’ll watch movies and TV differently, based on what we’ve learned. In a world dominated by the media, it’s an important skill to be able to… look at these images more critically.”

Adriana Byrne,
Grade 11

“I [was] continually blown away by the number of talented film makers from across the globe that submitted their films to the festival… I hope that film makers keep remembering the youth as an important and influential audience in the future.”

Yasmin Kassam,
Grade 11
