The film centers on Marieme, who starts a new life after escaping an abusive family environment.

She initially becomes involved in gang activities and seeks comfort from an older man who promises her a better life.

Ultimately, Marieme realizes this new lifestyle is not about the freedom and independence she sought.

“Girlhood” is in French with English subtitles.

The screening will be at 7:30 p.m.; the film lasts 112 minutes.

Carte Blanche members are eligible for free tickets; other admission prices range from $7-12.
