Growing Pains

Ruth and Bucky Stein Theatre

SUN · MARCH 22 · 2026 · 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM


Growing pains aren’t just for childhood—they follow us into every stage of life. This UpTilt Film Fest block explores the messy process of becoming: mistakes we can’t undo, hard choices, breaking free, and finding the courage to take a stand. By turns funny, heartbreaking, and triumphant, these films capture pivotal moments of change and self-discovery. It’s a little of everything—because growth itself never fits into just one story.
