This is the acclaimed drama about a teenage girl born in a boy’s body. It is an exceptionally moving coming-of-age tale about identity and the journey to becoming who you’re meant to be. Inspired by the real-life Belgian dancer Nora Monsecour, the story of Lara’s dogged pursuit of her dream of becoming a professional ballerina is told with empathy, poise and extraordinary sensitivity. Picking up an incredible four awards at the Cannes Film Festival, Girl is universally resonant for its portrayal of the struggle for self-acceptance.
