Girls’ Stories

Jagoda, 11, and Zuzia, 13, are neighbourhood friends. They are both hitting puberty now, so menstruation, their changing bodies, boys, and plans for the future are the main topics of their conversations.

Nothing feels better than time spent with a friend! Slumber parties under the stars and hours spent in the yard together – no one understands you as well as she does, and you can talk to her about everything: about first loves and your relationship with your parents, about the perception of your own body and the upcoming first period, about school and the strange bans and orders imposed there. Jagoda and Zuzia are genuine, bubbly, and ready to take on the world! This body-positive and de-stigmatising film tells the story of what it's like to be an adolescent girl, and you won’t be able to stop listening to the conversations of the two charming protagonists.
