LIKE is an IndieFLIX original documentary that explores the impact of social media on our lives. Technology is a tool that’s here to stay. Social platforms are a place to connect, share, and care, but what’s really happening? Are we addicted? How do we stop? Where do we start? What do we need to know? By understanding the effects of technology and social media on our brain, our lives, and on our civilization, we can learn to navigate it more safely together.

Join us in Boise on June 30th to screen this powerful film and join in a community conversation. Our goal for this film is to inspire people of all ages, especially kids, to self-regulate. It’s not about blame. It’s about looking in the mirror and empowering ourselves to create balance in our lives and to learn to be there for each other.
