The Reel 112 Film Festival

Reel 112 Film Festival

The Reel 112 Film Festival showcases the creative work of NSSD112 elementary and middle school filmmakers and is held every May at the Wayfarer Theater in Highland Park. The goal of the program is to expose students to the art of storytelling and self-expression through film, often resulting in compelling films that highlight the issues and concerns of tweens and teens.

The 2024 Reel 112 Film Festival is scheduled for Monday, May 20 (tentative date). Films must be submitted by Friday, April 5 to be considered for this year’s event. 

Middle school films must be created either during a CMA class rotation or independently.

Elementary films may be submitted directly to the 112 Education Foundation or to the school librarian.
