THE MAIN MOVIE – ‘ All This Panic’

An intimate look at the interior lives of a group of teenage girls as they come of age in Brooklyn. A potent mix of vivid portraiture and vérité, we follow the girls as they navigate the ephemeral and fleeting transition between childhood and adulthood.

The director Jenny Gage and the photographer Tom Bettertonsin shows off a beautiful and delicate aesthetics. They capture the intimate moments of self-realization, and the strength and durability of a friendship. Their commitment to documentary and their openness to the teenagers creates a natural and naked portraits of the bittersweet youth.

PRE MOVIE

‘Mephobia’

A bunch of girls at 6-8 year hang around in the neighbourhood and throw their trash out on the streets. The older girl gang is at least as frustrated but their pent-up restlessness are shown in other ways and limits are constantly being tested. Every single scene is a chafe of recognition, and manages to crawl under your skin where hubris and contempt go hand in hand.

Was shown at Gothenburg Film Festival 2016. ‘Mephobia ‘ according to the Urban Dictionary: Fear of becoming so awesome that the human race can’t handle it and everyone dies.
