In an unprecedented collaboration, the School of Ballet Arizona and the Phoenix Youth Symphony Orchestra unite to bring a groundbreaking performance to life.

With breathtaking talent and unwavering dedication, they showcase the transformative power of youth arts education, the profound impact of artistic collaboration, and the enduring importance of the arts in our world.

Bloom In, 2026 Honorable Mention for Animation!

From director Avery Robinson Rouda

An awkward cactus learns to bloom in her own divine timing.

This is a story about a girl finding her place in the world, personified through a cactus who judges herself and compares her truth to the Poppy flowers around her. When the Sun comes out to remind the Cactus how to open her heart and trust in her own unique soul's expression, this little prickly cactus finally learns the power of self-love, softening the walls around her heart so she can BLOOM IN.

Congratulations to everyone who worked on Bloom In!

Girls Don't Cry, 2026 Honorable Mention for Social Awareness!

From director Sigrid Klausmann

What does it mean to be a girl in the world today? How do they fare in a restrictive world? The documentary “Girls Don’t Cry” is about the longing of six girls from six countries, longing for a self-determined life in freedom, their desire to fall in love, without paternalism, without others having power over their bodies, with equal rights.

We see Nancy, Sheelan, Selenna, Nina, Paige and Sinai deal with the crisis of puberty, their self-confident decisions in difficult situations, their courageous fight against brutal traditions such as circumcision, against social constraints and pressure, against beauty mania and prejudice. Being young and cool, even in the face of trauma and loss.

Congratulations to everyone who worked on Girls Don't Cry!
