THE REEL ATTITUDE YOUTH JURY

Every November, Reel 2 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.
