Screenagers - Under the Influence

Screenagers - Under the Influence

Get ready to dive into an eye-opening in person (and/or online) event all about how screens affect our teens. We will have a panel discussion after screening the film. It's a relaxed, informative experience where we explore the digital world and its ups and downs. Whether you're a parent, educator, youth, or just curious, you'll find tons of useful insights and lively chats.

Screenagers Under The Influence: Addressing Vaping, Drugs, and Alcohol in the Digital Age, the third feature documentary in the Screenagers series, delves into how the tech revolution has reshaped adolescence and its effects on substance use.
The film debunks myths and depicts strategies parents and schools can use to encourage healthy decision-making, support teen mental health, set limits, and create healthy home environments.
The film also includes many ways young people are using their wisdom and strength to help each other and themselves through this complicated terrain around substance use. While most documentaries about substance use focus on severe addiction, Screenagers Under The Influence fills a pressing need for a film that explores more common scenarios.
The film is grounded in teens’ current reality of being flooded by images on social media, movies, and TV shows about vaping, drugs, and alcohol.
Like the first two Screenagers films, Screenagers Under The Influence interweaves cutting-edge science with personal stories to create an informative and entertaining film experience for young people and adults alike. Screenagers Under The Influence focuses on practical solutions for keeping our teens safe in a changing world.
