The Film

“Thank you for producing and sharing such an important work-it was a powerful and honest montage of the chaos, fragility, and passion of this moment-powerful!”

"Citizens Revival is a vital tool for civic engagement because it shifts the focus from merely holding an opinion to investigating the foundations that actually build those beliefs. Bringing this in to high schools would help guide students toward the foundation they need to back their opinions with substance and help them engage in more nuanced, meaningful dialogue."

- A Young Educator

"Citizens Revival demonstrates the desperate need for engagement in and conversation about our democratic system, specifically amongst young people. This film encourages honest, in-person community while also building the empathy that is increasingly lacking in our world."

“I was able to lead group discussions with Water Valley High School students after watching each section of the film, and there was a great sense of pride and hope after hearing their classmates' voices amongst such a diverse and thoughtful group. The film rejects stereotypes of high schoolers from rural southern spaces and gives them a chance to speak their minds.”
