Young Filmmakers Honored
City Hall event to
include film screenings
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler and members
of the Portland City Council will honor home-
less youth filmmakers during a special public
screening of their short films on Thursday, Dec.
13 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the Atrium of
City Hall, downtown.
The films will include the premiere of two
brand new shorts, produced by Outside the
Frame, a non-profit that helps make homeless
youth the directors of their own films and their
own lives.
“We’re showing that these young people
who are regarded as somewhere between a lia-
bility and a nuisance are valuable citizens, and

have so much to contribute,” says Nili Yosha,
Outside the Frame founder and executive direc-
tor.
Joey Whiting, a program alum who self-iden-
tifies as disabled and queer, said the program
has “given him a voice that I didn’t know I had,
which has been my life’s greatest blessing. It’s
not just about making movies, it’s about break-
ing silence.”
Since it was established three years ago,
Outside the Frame has successfully designed
workshops where dozens of youth experiencing
homelessness make their own films, gain em-
ployable skills as well as the confidence, atti-
tude and motivation to embrace and contribute
to society.

event at otfpdx.eventbrite.com.
