Girlhood

Christina shares a room with her brother, helps her mother with the housework, and yearns more than anything to gain her independence. Vera is insecure about her weight and longs for acceptance, while also yearning for a more inclusive world. And Nefeli discovers feminism and stops hanging out with boys, while she escaped through books and social media. This coming-of-age story shows teenage girls trying to figure out how to love themselves as they transition from girls to women in a society that remains deeply patriarchal. Even as their faces are glued to a screen during quarantine, they find refuge in their friendship as they finish school and begin the road to adulthood.
