Girls will be girls

DVD - 2025

A model student, 16-year-old Mira is the first-ever female prefect in charge of enforcing rules at a straitlaced Indian boarding school in the Himalayas. Despite her ambition and primness, she can₂t help but fall for new student Sri and steals away with him to flirt and stargaze. With frankness and sensitivity, writer-director Shuchi Talati uncovers the contradictory layers of Mira's sexual awakening, the complicated feelings triggered in her protective, unfulfilled mother, and the school's lax penalties for boys' transgressive behavior.
