Seriously Good Girls Shorts
You'll be intrigued by this classy collection of international shorts.
Newly wed June discovers she is in love with her best friend, Edna in Somewhere Only We Know. Can the women brave wartime New Zealand and pursue happiness together? Pages of a Girl follows Ingrid as she gets a job at a book store and finds herself inexplicably drawn to Sylvia, an older woman she works with. Ever thought about dialling for 'room service'? The appointment between Rosa and Flor starts off with them meeting as strangers and ends up with them revising their preconceived notions about one another in At Home (Or Love As Well). In Spark Caroline seems to have the perfect life - a great job and the perfect man. But what she really wants is Maria. What does The Gravedigger have to do with a girl, her distraught father and her mother who ran off with another woman?
