About this Event
Join DRIFF in a Jiff for a FREE screening of 'Star Wars Kid: The Rise of the Digital Shadows' at the Oshawa Public Library McLaughlin Branch.
Before TikTok, before YouTube, and before "going viral" was a career path, there was the Star Wars Kid.
In 2003, a private moment of 15-year-old Ghyslain Raza practicing his lightsaber moves was uploaded online without his consent. Overnight, he became the world's first global meme—a "digital shadow" that followed him for nearly two decades. Now, Ghyslain is breaking his silence to take back his story. The Rise of the Digital Shadows isn't just a look back at an internet relic; it’s a powerful exploration of digital empathy, the right to be forgotten, and the resilience required to stand back up when the whole world is watching.
