Join WCS for a private screening of T he Revolution Generation, the latest documentary by activist/filmmaker team Josh Tickell and Rebecca Harrell-Tickell. What better way to end your work week than by grabbing your favorite snack and beverage of choice, sitting back with your bossbabe friend group, and creating a space for a moment of inspiration. This documentary, produc ed by 360 Degree Communications, focuses on the exploration of world-changi ng activism and potential of the largest youth generation in history! The Revolution Generation shows examples of young leaders working to revolution ize systems that have failed their generation. It paints a powerful and hop eful picture of how today’s youth can solve global political and environmen tal crises.
This upbeat and inspiring document ary is narrated by and features the Award-Winning Actor Michelle Rodriguez (Lost, Avatar, The Fast and The Furious). The Revolution Generation is a ma nifesto in nature, tailored for today's youth on the societal forces that h ave both shaped and held back their generation. Go into your weekend feelin g empowered and reminded of how truly great your impact can be, we all need to be reminded of it sometimes.
As the millen nial and youth vote slides backwards in the United States from over 50% in 2016 to 46% in 2020, the movie ends with a call to action for young people to get involved in policy including running for office, revolutionizing out dated parts of our democracy and most importantly, voting.

ro*co films was born in Cannes in April of 2000, when Annie Rone y brought her first Oscar-nominated documentary film, Regret to Inform, to the international media market for licensing. It was only one film, but the masterful filmmaking and haunting content deserved a personal approach. Af ter licensing the film to dozens of countries and being thanked by buyers f or bringing a women’s perspective of war to the screen, Annie committed her self and her team to finding audiences for a curated collection of document aries that could positively impact the way global audiences wrestled with c omplex issues. Serving both filmmakers and media buyers, ro*co has naturall y grown and evolved much like the markets we serve. We can now reach an exp anded, more diverse audience, while proudly returning quarterly royalties t o filmmakers through six distinct divisions; international distribution, ed ucational distribution in the US & Canada, North American sales, digita l distribution, international semi-theatrical licensing and production.
