Gen Z Mental Health: Climate Stories is a short documentary that explores the mental health impacts of the climate crisis to young adults worldwide, and considers what resilience means when fighting for the right to a livable planet. The film captures the emotions of a generation that may be frightened, but is anything but hopeless, saving room for stories of love, community connections, and healing.

​

Directed by Tehya Jennett of Stranded Astronaut Productions and produced by Paramount, Climate Mental Health Network, Hollywood Climate Summit, and Yea Impact!.

​

The film has closed captioning in English and is available with subtitles en Français, en Español, em Português & in Italiano.
