Film screening
Register now to catch a screening of the French drama Girlhood at Cinema Space. Fed up with her abusive family situation, lack of school prospects and the "boys' law" in the neighbourhood, Marieme (Karidja Touré) starts a new life after meeting three free-spirited girls. She changes her name, her style, drops out of school and starts stealing to be accepted into the gang. When her home life becomes unbearable, Marieme seeks solace in an older man, who promises her money and protection. Realising this sort of lifestyle will never result in the freedom and independence she truly desires, she finally decides to take matters into her own hands.
