Girlhood
Prompt: The assignment, Ordinary to Extraordinary, is meant to explore video editing through a short film and how it can shape our perception of time and events, creating new and unexpected meanings and connections.
The film challenges the idea of girlhood, exploring what it means to be a girl and the importance of female relationships. There’s a contrast between the normal activities that are actually played out in the film versus the experimental editing and the interviewees’ answers, emphasizing just how complex girlhood truly is.
