Active: Teens Talk About Sex (a mini-documentary by Crislin Christian)

By Crislin Christian

During the summer of 2011, I went to my hometown of Chicago and interviewed 18 of my peers on their views an opinions on sex in our generation. I filmed, produced and directed the film along with the help of my friends Annie, Kalima and Cassidy, who asked the questions, and Christian, who provided the camera. None of the responses in this film are meant to be offensive; they are only urban teenagers' candid interpretations on a topic not normally discussed in a serious way.

The title "Active" is not entirely connected to the phrase "sexually active," but teens being mentally active as well, able to make logical conclusions about our emotional responses to sex.

This was my first film ever, so some of the footage might be a bit shaky and the sound might be weird at times, but if you watch the entire thing, I'm sure you'll be entertained and find many of the subjects rather relatable.
Please leave positive feedback.

Thanks to everyone who was a part of this process, who wanted to be a part of this process but could not, and who showed encouragement before, during and after. Enjoy.
