About this listen

In this episode of Campus Drive, host Matt Jackson, takes you inside the 2025 HoCo Student Film Festival, where student filmmakers from Howard County Public Schools are using the power of storytelling to make a difference.

We spotlight the documentary The Flood of Resilience, created by HCPS students Gabby Nguyen, Ana Lagos, and Leinani David, which explores Ellicott City’s flood recovery and features interviews with the offices of County Executive Calvin Ball and Maryland State Delegate Courtney Watson. Learn how the local film festival — in partnership with CSPAN, Howard Community College's Dragon Media Network, and local educators — is amplifying youth voices and civic engagement through film.
