Uniquely Youth Film Festival

Calling all young filmmakers!

Join us in The Gaia’s Zine’s very first Uniquely Youth Film Festival!

Do you have something to say? Have you been turned down from festivals because of your age? Do you just simply want to get your work out there?

Then Uniquely Youth is the film festival for you!

The Uniquely Youth Film Festival (August 24, 7 pm EST) will be a hosted 60-minute live-virtual screening followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers as part of the Queens World Film Festival Wednesday Nights @7 series.

All accepted shorts will become available on The Gaia Zine's website and YouTube channel alongside filmmaker interviews on August 27, 2022.
