The film 'Your Attention Please' has just launched at SXSW - which, for those unfamiliar, is short for South by Southwest®. Founded in 1987 in Austin, Texas, SXSW is best known for its conferences and festivals that celebrate the convergence of tech, film, music, education, and culture. 'Your Attention Please' turns the lens on the current and growing concerns around galloping AI, use / misuse of tech and communications techniques, and loss of human connection. Dcoumentary-style, it brings together real-life testimonies, headline stories, and commentary. As the makers explain: "A new generation of parents, teens, and reformers are fighting back against Big Tech's agenda to define the future of human connection. From Kristin, a mother pursuing legislative reform after losing her son, to Trisha, a young programmer building technology to stop cyberbullying, the film reveals how deeply the attention economy is shaping childhood, mental health, and human connection. As lawmakers debate the Kids Online Safety Act, Gen Z launches a global "Offline Club" movement, and a high school dares to go phone-free. What emerges is not a doomsday story, but a hopeful one: proof that the attention crisis is not inevitable and that a cultural shift is already underway. Blending intimate human stories with insights from leading experts in tech reform and digital wellbeing, Your Attention Please asks some of the most urgent questions of our time: Can we reclaim our autonomy? Can technology be redesigned to serve humanity? And what does a healthier relationship with the digital world look like for us and our kids?"
