SIDNEY RIVERS: REBEL HEART (2026) is an independently produced 2D animated film about friendship, love, and learning to open your heart to others.

Prom night is just around the corner at Roarville Academy, and 17-year-old Sidney Rivers isn't exactly thrilled about going. But with his enthusiastic best friend Harvey Brooks determined to make it a night to remember, and a new girl in town catching Sidney's attention, things might just get interesting!
