Girl Talk

About

Over an extended period, a director engages in an ongoing conversation with Yu, a teenage girl trying to come out of her experience of sexual trauma. A dialogue built on trust, the film follows Yu as she gradually learns to assert herself while the director remains present and open in the process. Through her social encounters, her words, and the short films she makes, Yu reflects on how she has been seen and defined, and begins to reclaim control of her own story. Resisting the label of “victim,” she moves forward with a firm step into the world.
