The Diary of a Teenage Girl – Aug. 21-23
102 minutes; Rated R
“The Diary of a Teenage Girl is based on Phoebe Gloeckner's novel of the same name. Hailed by Salon as "one of the most brutally honest, shocking, tender and beautiful portrayals of growing up female in America." Writer and director, Marielle Heller, unlocks this diary with a richly comedic and deeply personal vision. In her feature film directorial debut, Heller brings Gloeckner's book to life with fearless performances, a stirring score, inventive graphic novel-like animation sequences, imagination, humor and heart. It is a coming-of-age story that is as poignant as it is unsettling.”
