The Milwaukee Film Festival has always been a place to see movies from a variety of filmmakers, including local talent from here in southeastern Wisconsin. One of the groups getting their own spotlight at this year's event: the area’s youth filmmakers.

As part of the “Rated K: For Kids” program, the Milwaukee Youth Show features eight short films made by the city’s next-generation creatives. Before they take center stage at 10:45 a.m. Saturday, April 25, at the Downer Theatre, we talked with two of these talents: animator and Brookfield Central High School junior Sam Slowik, and recent Kettle Moraine School for Arts and Performance graduate Joseph Tzougros.
