Our new release on Friday March 15th is Belgian drama Girl.
Read on for a selection of reviews or pop in to make up your own mind.
GIRL “There is a seriousness of purpose here that is rare in an age where most arguments are carried out in block capitals. The word “important” is, for once, worth brandishing.” 4/5 – Irish Times
“Girl is beautifully made: it’s also an education.” 5/5 – Irish Independent
“The sheer sustained intensity of the drama and performances carry it through.” 4/5 – Guardian
“This isn’t just a trans story — it’s also a broader story of becoming, and the bold steps required to get there.” indieWire
“Looks terrific, is not afraid to tackle a number of difficult subjects and features a star-making performance from acting and dancing talent Victor Polster.” Hollywood Reporter
“How to stand out and blend in at the same time? Few films convey that tension better than “Girl,” a deeply humane first feature from Belgian director Lukas Dhont about a transgender teen who wants to be a ballerina.” Variety
