Mission Completed ✔︎

In Tierra Bomba, Frontline Film School has led filmmaking workshops where local youth learn to tell their own stories through film. We are in production on a short documentary tracing the journey of water from its source to the island, highlighting the severe water scarcity residents face daily. Our work is also focused on raising funds for a sustainable water purification system that extracts clean drinking water from the air, providing a long-term solution to the crisis. In collaboration with Amigos del Mar, we produced a fundraiser video to amplify awareness and support for clean water initiatives on the island. Through storytelling and action, we are empowering the next generation while working toward a future where access to clean water is a reality for all.

Mission Completed ✔︎

In the heart of La Guajira, Colombia, Frontline Film School is partnering with Third Wave Volunteers to bring a vital resource to the Wayuu people: clean, flowing water. Together, we are installing a water well that will serve as a lifeline for local communities long burdened by drought and scarcity.

This initiative goes beyond infrastructure—it is also a story of resilience, struggle, and hope. Through hands-on filmmaking workshops, Wayuu youth will learn to document their own experiences, capturing the daily challenges of life without water and the transformation a well can bring.

Working alongside our Student Advisory Board member, Joander González—an emerging Wayuu filmmaker—the project empowers the next generation to direct and share their own narratives. The short film that emerges will weave together images of water, wisdom, and survival, amplifying indigenous voices that too often go unheard.

Through this project, we aim not only to provide water but to ensure that the Wayuu people’s stories of endurance, culture, and strength flow into the future.

Frontline Film School is working with Navajo youth to tell the story of Bears Ears National Monument, a sacred landscape rich in history, culture, and natural resources. Designated as a national monument by President Obama to protect ancestral lands, Bears Ears now faces threats as protections are rolled back, and industrial interests—including uranium mining—endanger the fragile water systems that sustain life in the desert.

Through filmmaking workshops, Navajo youth will document the deep cultural ties their families hold to this land, while also highlighting the modern struggle to preserve clean water against extraction industries. By combining ancestral knowledge, personal storytelling, and documentary practice, these young filmmakers will create a powerful student-led film that elevates their voices, showing what’s at stake when water, culture, and future generations are put at risk.

This project is not only about conservation—it is about sovereignty, resilience, and protecting sacred land through the power of story.

Collaborating with the The Institute for American Indian Arts

Frontline Film School is partnering with Peace Activation, founded by Eva Dalak, to bring the power of storytelling and filmmaking to conflict transformation in Israel and Palestine. Eva, a Palestinian peace leader from Jerusalem, has worked globally with the UN and World Bank, but now focuses on healing trauma in her home conflict zone. Through film workshops, storytelling initiatives, and immersive training, we are equipping individuals from both communities with tools to address trauma, foster communication, and reclaim their narratives.

Our upcoming workshops in January will train both Palestinians and Israelis in storytelling, filmmaking, and trauma-informed practices such as somatic movement and dialogue techniques, helping them articulate their lived experiences. This initiative also aligns with 100.000.000 Stories, an organization documenting voices from the SWANA region, ensuring that the true nuance of the conflict is captured by those living it.

Through film and personal storytelling, we are bridging voices, amplifying unheard perspectives, and fostering understanding—one story at a time.

In the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico, Frontline Film School is collaborating with Ernesto Olmos, a renowned artist dedicated to preserving Mesoamerican traditions. Through hands-on filmmaking workshops, local youth are documenting their own process of learning ancestral craftsmanship, creating sacred tools, and engaging with the rich artistic legacy of their culture.

This initiative is more than just an art workshop—it’s a living bridge between past and present, where children not only create but also tell their own stories through film. By working directly with Ernesto Olmos, they gain deep insight into indigenous knowledge, learning the symbolic significance of sacred objects, ritual tools, and traditional materials.

The short film emerging from this project will highlight the importance of learning by doing, showing how art can be both a form of storytelling and cultural preservation. Through this, we aim to amplify the voices of young indigenous artists and ensure that their heritage remains alive for future generations.

Beneath the concrete overpasses of Medellín, a forgotten community fights to live with dignity. Under the Bridge takes viewers into Moravia—an invasion zone where families endure harsh conditions with unbreakable spirit.

Created by Frontline Film School in collaboration with Kind Footprint, this film is both a portrait of resilience and a call to see humanity where it is often overlooked. It honors the strength, creativity, and perseverance of those transforming hardship into hope, proving that even in the shadow of concrete, life finds a way to shine.s here
