Join us for an insightful conversation exploring how nature, community, and storytelling can support young people’s mental health — inspired by the release of FOLKTALES. Taking place Tuesday July 29 at 1:00 PM PT / 4:00 PM ET via Zoom.

In FOLKTALES, directed by Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, three teenagers leave the comforts of home to enroll in a traditional “folk high school” in the wilds of northernmost Norway. Dropped in the arctic wilderness for one year, Hege, Romain, and Bjørn Tore must rely only on themselves and a pack of loyal sled dogs as they take the daunting step from childhood to adulthood. Freed from technology, social media, and the noise of modern life, this brave trio learns to face themselves for the first time, and experience an unexpected transformation. 

Our panel speakers include:

Ginger Naylor, CEO, Outward Bound USA

Dr. Whitney Raglin Bignall, Clinical Director, The Kids Mental Health Foundation

Heidi Ewing & Rachel Grady, Co-Directors, FOLKTALES

Moderated by Together Films Founder & CEO, Sarah Mosses
