About the Film
Can’t Look Away is a film about the dangers of social media. The film makes the connection between harmful algorithms and the negative consequences to young users. Across the state and nation, communities just like ours are urgently pressing for reform to address the risks young users face when engaging on social media platforms. We have an opportunity through this free film to educate families on the dangers of social media, what is at stake, how to stay connected and informed, and how to seek help for an impacted child or youth.
