Girls Will Be Girls Director Shuchi Talati

Girls Will Be Girls follows 16 year-old Mira as she first discovers sexual desire while attending a strict boarding school in the Himalayas, but her coming-of-age is disrupted by her mother who never got to come of age herself. Director/writer Shuchi Talati shares how she was delicately able to portray teenage sexuality, why certain crew members had a lot of tips for a certain stuffed animal scene, and their emotional experience screening the film in India for the first time.
