SHIFT: Do What Moves You Free Film Screening
2026-06-27 11:00 - 14:00
SHIFT: Do What Moves You is more than a documentary—it’s a powerful invitation to reimagine what’s possible.
Created by Tell My Story, this compelling film brings to life the journeys of 13 young people who are discovering strength, healing, and purpose through what moves them most. From sports and music to art, theater, and beyond, each story reveals how passion can become a pathway to resilience.
At a time when youth mental health challenges are at an all-time high, SHIFT offers something different: hope in motion. Through authentic storytelling, the film highlights how creativity, connection, and self-expression can transform pain into power and uncertainty into direction.
This isn’t a story about struggle alone—it’s about what’s possible on the other side of it.
SHIFT challenges us to move beyond labels and limitations, and instead see young people as creators, dreamers, and change-makers. It reframes the narrative—from focusing on what’s wrong to celebrating what’s strong—reminding us that every young person carries something within them worth discovering and nurturing.
Paired with guided conversations and community dialogue, SHIFT becomes more than a film—it becomes an experience. One that sparks meaningful discussions among youth, parents, educators, and communities, helping us better understand how to support the next generation.

Why SHIFT Matters

It centers youth voices in a way that is honest, relatable, and empowering
It redefines mental health conversations, focusing on strength, not stigma
It inspires action, encouraging young people to explore what moves them
It builds connection, creating space for families and communities to grow together

The Takeaway
When young people are given the space to explore their passions, they don’t just survive—they SHIFT.
They rise. They create. They lead.And most importantly—they discover who they’re meant to become.
