First International Trailer for Lukas Dhont's Acclaimed Trans Film 'Girl'

“Work harder, or it will be a hopeless situation.” The Match Factory has debuted an international trailer for the acclaimed film titled Girl, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival this year and won the Camera d’Or for Best First Film. Girl follows a 15-year-old transgender teen, who is trying hard to achieve her goal of becoming a professional ballerina. The film stars Victor Polster as Lara, and gives us an intimate look at the incredible struggles and emotional challenges that she is facing. It’s one of the best films that I saw at Cannes this year, and I wrote in my effusive review: “it’s such an achingly beautiful, emotionally resonant, intelligent, breathtaking film.” The cast includes Arieh Worthalter, Katelijne Damen, and Valentijn Dhaenens. This is a really wonderful film that I hope finds an audience, it deserves to be seen. Take a look. ›››
