Description of Film
The film is an exploration of the world-changing activism and potential of the largest youth generation in history. RG shows examples of young leaders working to revolutionize systems that have failed their generation. It paints a powerful and hopeful picture of how today’s youth can solve global political and environmental crises.
Narrated and featuring Award-Winning Actor Michelle Rodriguez (Lost, Avatar, The Fast and The Furious), RG is a manifesto for today’s youth on the societal forces that have both shaped and held back their generation. The film gives a roadmap for how today’s youth can revolutionize the political, social and economic systems that have exploited and failed them. This upbeat documentary explores “an alternate history” of the sweeping changes that lead to the world that young people are inheriting and paints a powerful, hopeful, and actionable picture of how today’s youth can solve the global climate crisis.
