She Wants to Talk to You
A film by
Anita Chang
Grades 6 and up
Bravely presenting themselves in front of the camera, three Nepali girls share with filmmaker Anita Chang their ideas on friendship, love, and future dreams. The result is a poetic film that offers rare insight into the lives of girls living in a society steeped in patriarchy and tradition. “In showing this movie, young women can be educated about the social conditions of young women in Nepal and discuss how borders can be broken to build a transnational coalition of young women.” Patricia Krueger, Global Kids

"Creating a complexly textured portrait of Nepalese girlhood, Chang's film expands the concept of growing up female beyond its cinematic stereotypes while also challenging Western females to acknowledge their many privileges."
Mary Celeste Kearney, Feminist Media Studies Scholar
