"Girls Will Be Girls"

A different kind of, and highly welcome, cinematic coming-of-age story that doesn't duck topics like female sexuality and agency.

Complex mother-daughter relationships wrapped up in a coming-of-age story are nothing new, but Shuchi Talati’s “Girls Will Be Girls” is a tale of sexual awakening and growing up that has a knowing streak of rebellious energy. Told from the perspectives of two different women, this film authentically captures the female experience and the complicated nuances of an evolving rapport between a…

Girls Will Be Girls (15): Sexual Awakening in an Indian Boarding School.

#onemannsmovies #filmreview of "Girls will be Girls". #GirlsWillBeGirls. A superbly told and sensitive coming of age story. 4.5/5.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “Girls Will Be Girls” (2024). ‘Coming of Age’ and ‘sexual awakening’ films have been done many times before. But Shuchi Talati’s new film, set in a mixed boarding school high in the mountains in the northern Indian region of Uttarakhand, just does it to perfection. Bob the Movie Man Rating: Plot Summary: 15-year-old Mira (Preeti Panigrahi) is the star pupil at…

Why Indo-French movie ‘Girls Will Be Girls’ was shot by a mostly female crew

Actors Preeti Panigrahi and Kani Kusruti in a still from Shuchi Talati’s ‘Girls Will Be Girls’. Shuchi Talati, writer-director of Girls Will Be Girls, which debuted at the ongoing Sundance Film Festival, wanted to create a movie set where girls could be girls. So she involved a mostly female crew to shoot the film. “In spaces which are more ‘male’, women wear armour. But when we don’t have to…

Limitations lead to unexpected magic.

I watched All We Imagine as Light last night at Film Forum. Payal Kapadia did q and a with Shuchi Talati. Payal was energetic, open, and joyful.

It packed an emotional wallop that I wasn't expecting. The movie is extremely well-crafted - here is a film maker who loves film and loves her craft. Reminded me a bit of Molly from Rubyfruit Jungle, unshakeable in her trajectory as a film maker.

I found the movie textured and deeply evocative. Visually layered, with a cleverness and precision that other film makers noted, I loved the music and all the sound. The billowing of the blue saris was my favorite shot. The rain in Mumbai. The ridiculous beauty of the fishing villages. That part was giving Anita Desai :-)

I was distraught. The city skyline was unrecognizeable. Wait, was that Bandra station? I spent a good 8 years on those platforms and on those heaving trains, and yesterday I couldn't recognize the color of the inside of a train. Impermanence, displacement and migration are central.

I loved that all the stories were told from a very female-centric lens. She called the men "lulloo" :-) The underlying ideas of space, of belonging, of the need for privacy, of anonymity in a big city, resonated with me very much. She doesn't hesitate to look "violent gentrification", the patriarchy squarely in the eye! She embraced the physicality of the two nurses. No attempt to gussy anything or anyone up. The fragile dignity in the curve of Prabha's neck, how she squats to mop up the rain water, the sex scene with Anu. It is a new sensibility, not one of oppression. That made me happy.

I loved the contrasts, the juxtapositions - rigid grieving Prabha versus joyful seemingly-flighty Anu. Quiet inner struggles versus the predictable din of the train. That feeling of being completely alone versus the raucous communal dancing at Ganeshotsav. Documentary versus fiction. That ever-present feeling of being eclipsed, of encroachment, of being jostled for space, which I think, really is a signature of Mumbai!

I loved hearing little snippets of gujrati, bhojpuri, marathi, bengali - that feels like Bombay. Just like I fully expect to hear russian, spanish and korean on any given night in Manhattan :-) I was gobsmacked that she made the movie in Malayalam! I'd love to learn more about this part - I loved hearing all the well-worn phrases. "Dimaag kharab" "Mumbai meri jaan"

The dream-scene with the drowned man confused me and then pulled me in completely! It felt like a kind of exorcism - Prabha stops looking to the future, no longer beholden to her desire / fantasy that her husband will ask her to come back, she returns at peace to the present. The line where the boy in the shack tells Parvati to stay as long as she'd liked struck me. I loved the last two sentences of the movie. "It is beautiful there. It is beautiful here, too".

I loved how she talks about process, "padhaai" - do, reflect, grow.

I'm madly collecting all the links and facts I can! She thanks her grandmother in the credits! The movie title is "borrowed" from one of her mother's paintings. Love Love Love.

As a scientist working diligently towards promotion, worrying about the implicit bias and shades of grey in my external letters, it was bracing to see film-makers embrace ambiguity, adversity, their craft.
