The most politically powerful film in this Santa Barbara Filmmakers collection of SBIFF 2021 is The Revolution Generation, a documentary about the strong and expansive impact of the oft-ridiculed millennial generation on American society. Narrated by actor Michelle Rodriguez and directed by Ojai residents Josh and Rebecca Tickell (whose recent film Kiss the Ground won much acclaim), it’s a deeply reported, stereotype-slaying film about generational cycles.

Josh recently answered some questions via email.
