Three films written and produced by Brookline teenagers will premiere at the Coolidge Corner Theatre on Thursday, Nov. 5, in a free screening hosted by Brookline Interactive Group.

The nonprofit's annual Youth Media showcase runs from 6 to 8 p.m. at 290 Harvard St. and includes a Q&A with the young filmmakers. Seats are limited, and organizers are urging early RSVPs through Eventbrite. Donations are accepted.

The lineup spans a narrative short and two documentaries. "Eye to Eye," produced by BIG's Cinema Apprentices, follows a character named Stevie who accidentally puts a curse on her ex-boyfriend Tyler. His best friend Brick tries to help lift it.

The documentary "The Outdoor Adventure Club," directed by teen filmmaker Derek Matos Huertas, follows him whitewater rafting with Brookline High School's Outdoor Adventure Club. Matos Huertas interviews club founder Paul Epstein about how the group has evolved and its effect on students. Epstein started the club during the COVID-19 pandemic to get students outdoors after months of remote learning, The Cypress reported in April 2023.

"If it ain't fun, we ain't doing it … Hiking is our bread and butter because we can do it anywhere," Epstein told The Cypress at the time.

The third film, "Newcomers and Neighbors: How Diversity Shapes Brookline," examines racial and immigrant identity in the town and its schools. It features interviews with students, administrators and experts, and looks at support systems including the Metropolitan Council for Educational Opportunity (METCO) and the Asian American Pacific Islander Leadership and Affinity Program (LEAP).

Susie Ma, whose son Ben Ma is a paid BIG Media Apprentice, said the program's value goes beyond cameras and editing software.

"I love that he's building technical skills … skills he could take to a real job," Ma said in an Oct. 5 BrooklineHub profile of the showcase. "But even more than that, as parents, we all want our kids to have experiences that help them grow."

Ben Ma and two other BIG youth producers won first place at the national Hometown Media Awards for their short film "All the Time in the World." BIG also took first place for "Hidden Gem: The Story of Brookline's Kirrane Skating Rink," according to a BIG video posted in July.
