My Millennial Life 52 min Canada Directed by Maureen Judge Produced by Maureen Judge; Charlotte Engel A major work about the current twenty-something generation’ - John Doyle, the Globe and Mail My Millennial Life follows five dynamic millennials over a year, as they launch their lives. They set out on the same path their parents did, and assumed the same rules still apply – go to school, get a job, find fulfillment, fall in love. But somewhere along the way, the rug was pulled out from under their expectations. They’re living a reality that sees nearly half of their age group either unemployed or underemployed. Combining verité filming, interviews and video diary, with humour and compassion the documentary puts a human face on the quandary of finding a place in 21st century society.
