Women Make Waves International Film Festival

Program

Titties

Anneke de Lind van Wijingaarden 2004 Netherlands Documentary color 15min Dutch Digi-Beta
13-year-old girls talk frankly about adolescent subjects like growing boobs, kissing, boys and being too fat. At the local cafeteria all major issues are discussed over chips and Coke. The VMBO students (lower secondary professional education) call a spade a spade and, giggling, bare their souls to each other. The presence of the camera does not seem to bother them one bit. And the boys are also given a chance to explain why they always have such strange looks on their faces during gym class and in the swimming pool.
