Planet Classroom's 9 New Shorts Explore Memory, Innovation, Justice, and Human Connection

Planet Classroom premieres nine powerful new films in July--from feminist history and AI accessibility to surreal thrillers and grassroots activism.

NEW YORK, July 5, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Planet Classroom Network's July release features nine new youth-curated short films, now streaming on YouTube. Spanning continents and genres, the collection explores what it means to transform, resist, and reimagine the world we live in.

This month's selection features personal journeys and community-led movements that challenge the status quo--each film offering a distinct voice, vision, and message. From rural Kenya to Broadway, and from drone cinematography to digital accessibility, audiences are invited to experience a global lens on courage, creativity, and change.

?? Themes Highlighted in the Collection Include:

    --  Memory & Identity - In American Gothic, siblings uncover a reel of home
        footage that unravels everything they thought they knew about their
        past. It's a surreal thriller that questions the reliability of memory
        and the role of the storyteller.

?? In addition to these six stories, the full July release includes:

    --  Musicians Without Borders - A global organization using music to heal
        conflict-affected communities
    --  Francis Poulenc: Cantilena - A lyrical performance by Bard College
        Conservatory of Music
    --  Maybe Happy Ending - A heartfelt video review of a Broadway musical
        about love and connection between two helper robots

?? All 9 films are now streaming on Planet Classroom's YouTube Channel and are free for global audiences.
