How to stand out and blend in at the same time? Few films convey that tension better than "Girl," a deeply humane first feature from Belgian director Lukas Dhont about a transgender teen who wants to be a ballerina.
February 13, 2019
Watch out for Polster, Worthalter, and especially Dhont. Anyone who can direct a film with such control, sensitivity and confidence on their first attempt has a bright future ahead.
January 10, 2019
Dhont's film comes across as mere exploitation long before the bewildering third act, when it changes gears into a Black Swan-adjacent body horror that quickly loses the grip of reality.
January 16, 2019
If there's anything the increased visibility of transgender people in our culture has imparted above all, it's that gender is about more than genitalia. Girl, for all its pretensions toward allyship, regressively insists in the opposite direction.
January 24, 2019
One of the most agonisingly well-observed films about being an adolescent that I've ever seen.
May 14, 2018
Looks terrific, is not afraid to tackle a number of difficult subjects and features a star-making performance from acting and dancing talent Victor Polster.

Where most queer films are about external conflicts and prejudice, Lara's primary conflict in this movie is with what she sees in the mirror.
January 13, 2019
An emotional roller coaster for the title character who must discipline herself for a tough-love ballet teacher.
September 16, 2018
Dhost's nonjudgmental film doesn't traverse new territory for a trans film, and it features too much dancing, but it benefits from its authenticity.
January 11, 2019
Lukas Dhont's debut feature is a moving portrait of a body in transition.
May 16, 2018
This isn't just a trans story -- it's also a broader story of becoming, and the bold steps required to get there.
December 27, 2018
It feels exploitative, rather than empathetic. But it's the irresponsible handling of the film's final, shocking scenes that is the most problematic.
