The Reel Attitude Youth Jury

Every November, Reel to Real offers workshops in film criticism at the National Film Board of Canada. This is a challenging and interactive experience where students sharpen their critical eye, gain an appreciation for international films, & learn what makes a film great. Two Youth Juries are chosen from successful workshop graduates (ages 9-12 and 13-19). The Youth Juries help organizers make selections, and choose the award winners. Awards are announced during Reel to Real’s Opening Night Award Celebration on Friday, March 7th at Tinseltown Cinema.

We wish to thank these talented young people who spent hours viewing film from around the world. Based on their careful consideration and thoughtful analysis, we have awarded the best films.
