GIRLS DON’T CRY

The world is seen through the eyes of six girls. Nancy from Tanzania has fled to a shelter to escape the threat of genital mutilation. Selenna, a transgender girl from Chile, is preparing for surgery. Nina, a Romani girl, dreams of a normal life in Serbia. Sinai, from South Korea, enjoys BMX biking and reflects on her country's ideals of beauty. Paige, from the UK, is a teenage mother who receives support from her loved ones. Sheela, traumatized in a prison camp, just wants to live in peace in her new home country, Germany. In the documentary, they talk about their lives, experiences, fears, and dreams.
