Tomboy: Sunshine Girl's Growing Diary

The family moved into a new apartment, the father was busy with work, the mother was pregnant, and the two children had nothing to do. The ten-year-old eldest who is waiting for the new semester to go out and hang out alone, quickly blends in with the friends of the neighbors, plays shirtless football, swims in the water, and has a crazy sprinkler game, and is also favored by a girl of the same age. Happy days can be described as Very happy. A fight with someone for his 5-year-old sister once revealed an unknown and embarrassing secret, he was actually a girl!

The film, directed by French female director Celine Sciamma, took only three weeks to shoot and won the Teddy Jury Prize at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2011. There is no esoteric philosophy or too much scenery The picture is just to deduce the cause and effect of a "tomboy" mixing into the crowd, as well as a large number of indiscriminate conversations between children, which has a literary and artistic temperament of self-cultivation. If the film is to show the "interestingness" of tomboys, it is better to think that the director is just using the name of tomboys to let everyone pay more attention to the growing world of the children around them, and watch a group of lovely 5-10-year-old children. All kinds of fun things we do together. In addition, the super cute 5-year-old girl didn't dare to speak at the dinner table when she was covering up the truth for her sister. When she saw her sister's grievance, she sneaked into the bed and hugged her sister at night. Kind of.

Finally, the tomboy who did not dare to leave the house hid at home, saw the girl under the waiting tree on the balcony, went downstairs and walked to the girl, from the awkward self-blame expression to the slowly smiling mouth. It finally gave people a long sigh of relief. This is not a gloomy "Boys Don't Cry", but a sunny diary of growing up. How many girls have experienced that period of "boyhood", they don't want to keep their peace, they just want to run and jump like a boy all day long. This is a normal thing for girls to grow up.
