Amid the pandemic, The Festival Fellows participated in the Babel Film Workshop global stay-at-home filmmaking initiative, Film Stylo. Their films, made as part of the initiative, are featured here and on the Film Stylo international archive of student films documenting their lives during this historical time. Below is Yulisa's Film Stylo project.

2020 Fellow

Yulisa (she/her/hers) is a Mexican-American sophomore in Common Ground High School. She gets inspired by her friends and is planning to go to college. During the Art & Ideas Fellowship program she has learned to express herself more often to new people, when she was first introduced to the program Yulisa thought it would be something fun and new. The experience was better than she expected and she enjoyed her time with the rest of the fellows. Yulisa’s favorite color is light blue and she loves spending time with her family.
