Girls Will Be Girls is the year's finest film

The Shuchi Talati debut is a striking coming-of film with the most tender gaze in recent times. It is about a teenager Mira Kishore (a sublime Preeti Panigrahi) waking up to the precarity of youth. Talati designs a tactile drama that runs through the pitfalls of relationships to culminate as a moving ode to sisterhood and kinship. Girls Will Be Girls is one of the best films of the year. I understand it is a broad statement that is both subjective and effusive.
