Winners will be partnered with Hollywood filmmakers to make our next set of short films! Educators in those three regions should contact Scenarios USA in August about upcoming workshops.

Provincetown International Film Festival invited Amina Felder and Tiauna Clark, co-writers of our film Misunderstood, to participate in their Youth and Diversity Panel on June 20th. Two of our other films, Bitter Memories, and MANchild, were also screened.
