    Freak Flag

    Sarah CONLEY 2017 USA Fiction color 13min English HDCAM
    Freak Flag follows Abeline, an imaginative 8-year-old stifled by societal norms. She is not 'girly' enough, and not 'boyish' enough to be accepted by her male classmates. Abeline decides to assert her independence by doing whatever she wants. She chops off her hair, changes her name, and refuses to cow.
