    "LIKE is truly an incredible film depicting the unsettling reality of technology addiction within teenagers. The filmmakers do a wonderful job bringing in different viewpoints, stories, and scientific data emphasizing the need to feel connected to others through a phone screen. I absolutely recommend LIKE to every student, parent, or educator as we battle this era of technology overconsumption- 10/10!"

  • Maria O. Alvarez, VP, Common Sense Latino

    "LIKE tells the real story behind social media platforms: you, all of us are the product. It also tells the positive aspects of social media. Having a balanced perspective on how to navigate social media platforms is essential to all parents and educators raising and educating this generation."

  • Stephanie Humphrey, Tech Contributor to ABC News

    "As someone who has spoken to thousands of students about social media and digital citizenship, I can confidently attest to the fact that the issues raised in 'LIKE' have not been overstated. The potential negative emotional and psychological effects of social media addiction and misuse are real - and can do real damage to a young person's overall mental wellness. 'LIKE' is an important resource for schools and families to understand what's at stake, and to take proactive steps to ensure that students maintain a healthy attitude towards their digital behavior."
