Collections/June 2024
Forming a loose trilogy centered around the experiences of young people grappling with issues of sexual, gender, and social identity, the revelatory first three features by French auteur Céline Sciamma— Water Lilies , Tomboy , and Girlhood —ache and soar with the pain, confusion, and exhilaration of adolescence. Graced with an evocative, impressionistic visual style and remarkable performances from their nonprofessional leads, these intimate coming-of-age tales are lit from within by a raw, heart-pounding emotional honesty.
