Victa Cinema will offer a free screening of the documentary Embrace Kids on Friday 21 July.
The film was made by Australian of the Year Taryn Brumfit, who founded the Body Image Movement.
It followed her 2016 documentary film Embrace, which aimed to change the way women think about themselves, their bodies and how others view them.
In Embrace Kids, a group of young people share their experiences about body image, bullying, and identity, and how these experiences have changed how they view the world.
It has been described as an energetic mix of animation, live action, interviews and music.
The film explores the relationship children have with their bodies and covers topics including social media, disability, gender identity, representation and diversity.
It will screen at 5.30pm in the ground floor cinema.
