In their documentary Girls don't cry, directors Sigrid Klausmann and Lina Luzyte accompany girls from all over the world in their everyday lives and tell impressive stories of courage, self-determination and strength. A film that brings female empowerment to the movies in an authentic and touching way.
Nancy, Sheelan, Sinai, Paige, Selenna and Nina live in very different places - in Tanzania, Germany, Chile, the USA and Iraq. What they have in common: They are teenagers fighting against social constraints, family expectations and sometimes life-threatening circumstances. Their common desire is to live a self-determined and safe life in freedom. The film is a moving plea for a future in which girls worldwide have the same opportunities. Powerful, honest and inspiring: real girl power.
