Three by Céline Sciamma

3 Episodes

Forming a loose trilogy centered around the experiences of young people grappling with issues of sexual, gender, and social identity, the revelatory first three features by French auteur Céline Sciamma—WATER LILIES, TOMBOY, and GIRLHOOD—ache and soar with the pain, confusion, and exhilaration of adolescence. Graced with an evocative, impressionistic visual style and remarkable performances from their nonprofessional leads, these intimate coming-of-age tales are lit from within by a raw, heart-pounding emotional honesty.
