Fee required.

Girlhood gloriously captures the choices facing a tough, intelligent, basically decent young person in a world that views her with indifference and suspicion. Marieme is a 16-year-old black girl living in the projects outside of Paris. Fed up with her family and school, our shy heroine joins a girl gang— discovering courage, camaraderie and fun for the first time. “Ms. Sciamma revels in the risky, reckless exuberance of adolescence and in the sheer joy of filming it “(New York Times). D: Céline Sciamma, France, subtitled, 2015, 112m
