The Regular Show
It’s the turn of the century, Seoul is calling, the world is your oyster, and your friends… where are they? Straight out of high school, a group of five girlfriends attempt to navigate life and their changing friendships amid personal difficulties. Coming from different familial situations, their ambitions and desires fray as adulthood seeps in and, with it, the cost of dependence and the failure of seeing those whom you love.
In this new year, the girls deal with various degrees of delusion and disillusion, comforts and fragments, reliance and inconsideration. With a contemporary take on coming-of-age stories, the film grieves and celebrates the evolving nature of sisterhood, tapping into the good, bad and ugly sides of female friendships - its supports, losses and eventual drifts.
-----------------------
For our June curation, Girls Will Be Girls, we shift our gaze towards the lived lives of young women and girls as they navigate the pain, joy, pride, shame, torture, liberation, and the endless dimensions of being and becoming a woman.
Written and directed by women, these films thread experiences shared across time and space. Through the curation runs whimsy and abandon, often a means of female subversion in everyday lives. Be it the search of grounding and sisterhood in lonely cities; the outgrowing of friendships as young adults; the struggle to balance illict desires and true love; the attempt to face one’s mortality (and vanity); or fighting the most dangerous enemies of all - a teenage boy and your mother.
Disagreeable and uncomfortable, these are authentic portrayals that allow women to exist beyond their assigned roles. Handled with care and wit, ridicule and finesse, they shift gaze towards love, family, friendships and other systems that intrinsically malign and heal women. A gaze towards the attempt of coming into oneself. A gaze towards girls being… girls.
