Guests Expected
Directors Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss are expected to attend for a post-screening Q&A.
Description
From Apple TV+ and award-winning filmmakers Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss, a follow-up of their 2020 hit Boys State (SFFILM 2020) asks the thought-provoking question, what would American democracy look like in the hands of teenage girls? Similar to programs throughout the country, the American Legion Auxiliary Missouri Girls State, established in 1940, empowers young women across Missouri by providing immersive experiences in civic engagement, leadership, and public service. Filmed during the summer of 2022, soon after the monumental overturning of Roe v. Wade, Girls State is a political coming-of-age story and a powerful reinterpretation of what it means to govern.
