Product Overview
I Am a Girl is an inspirational feature-length documentary that paints a clear picture of the reality of what it means to be a girl in the twenty-first century.
As a day on Earth transpires from dawn to dusk and into the night, we meet Manu, Kimsey, Aziza, Habiba, Breani and Katie – each on the brink of womanhood and dealing with the realities of what it means to grow up female in their world today. As they come of age in the way their cultures dictate, we see remarkable, heart-warming stories of resilience, bravery and humour.
Award-winning filmmaker Rebecca Barry takes the audience on a journey through diverse cultures and societies around the globe, including Cambodia, Papua New Guinea, Cameroon, Afghanistan, the USA and Australia.
'I want to be something … extraordinary.' – Breani, The Projects, NYC, 2012
