LITTLE GIRL
Directed by Sébastien Lifshitz
Pride Month Virtual Screening
LITTLE GIRL is a moving portrait of 7-year-old Sasha, who has always known that she is a girl, and her family, who have recently accepted and embraced their daughter for who she truly is. Documented with delicacy and intimacy, LITTLE GIRL is a compassionate look at the emotional challenges, everyday feats, and small moments in Sasha’s daily life in a community that is not as quick to adapt.
