An award-winning film that probes into the vulnerable corners of family life and depicts messy struggles over social media, video games and academics. The film offers solutions on how we can help our kids navigate the digital world.
This new version of the original Screenagers movie addresses issues that elementary school aged kids, parents and educators are facing, i.e., smartwatches in class, unhooking from and monitoring video gaming, social media pressures, exposure too young and what research shows is a healthy amount of screen time.
High Stress, anxiety and depression are experienced by millions of young people. We follow physician and filmmaker, Delaney Ruston, as she discovers solutions for improved adolescent well-being in the digital age.
Join Screenagers filmmaker, Delaney Ruston as she picks up her camera once more to examine the impact of our digital age on teens decision making in relation to substances such as vaping, alcohol and drugs.
Amongst a range of financial measures to support the national recovery from Covid-19, both the American Rescue Plan (ARP) and the CARES act, include significant financial support for schools to mitigate against the negative impact on the education of our kids.
Our 1,000s of US School hosts regularly screen our movies as part of their wider Social & Emotional Learning (SEL) and mental health programs. Many have told us of their intention to use these available funds to cover the cost of future events and continue to support important SEL and mental health activities.
While we can't offer specific guidance on how to use the available funds, we would encourage prospective US School hosts to speak with their administration, district and state educators - and to learn more about the use of these funds here (ARP) and here (CARES)
We made our movies specifically to be screened at schools and community events, to promote learning and discussion amongst families and peer groups. If you have the community or audience, then our team help hosts every day to run successful and engaging events!

You only need a space large enough to fit your audience, along with the relevant screening equipment (i.e. large display, projector, cinema screen, etc.) Most hosts use a school gym or auditorium, church, community centre or library meeting space. Some make arrangements with a school theatre or local commercial film theatre.
Yes. You can set a ticket price at any amount you choose and of course you can offer free attendance to your event. Something in the region of $5-10 is common.
We highly recommend having a post film discussion with your audience immediately following the film. Most organisers choose a person from their own community to lead the discussion - we provide a moderator guide to support this. The guide contains facts from the film, and suggested discussion questions. Some hosts invite a panel of local experts to answer questions.
Additionally, Screenagers Filmmaker Delaney Ruston, MD. is available to book for a fee to lead the discussion and answer questions at your event.
Our hope is that parents and children all see this film either together in order to spark healthy family discussions on the themes of the movies. We generally recommend our movies for the following grade levels:
- Screenagers: Middle School and up (Grade 6) - some elementary schools do show this at grades 4-5.
- Screenagers - Elementary School Age Edition: Elementary school (Grade K-5)
- Screenagers Next Chapter: Middle school and up (Grade 6)
- Screenagers Under The Influence: Middle school and up (Grade 6)
These are our recommendations, but we trust in you to know your audience best to make a decision on what is right for your school or community. Consider the film’s documentary style, length and content and remember, preview copies are available to prospective hosts if needed. The children featured in this film are in middle school and high school, with elementary school age children featured in Screenagers - Elementary School Edition
