Violet is a tale of a young girl who despises her reflection. On the night of the school ball, tired of the abuse, Violet’s reflection decides she’s not going to take it anymore. Skatekeet is a documentary about Keet, a ten-year-old girl, whose skateboard skills have attracted attention in a skate world dominated by boys. Besides getting respect from her fellow skaters she also encounters lack of understanding from others. Keet rolls through a world of pre-conceived opinions on how girls should be, while carving out her own path. In Plaster, when a shy twelve-year-old breaks his arm, his summer holiday seems doomed. Then he comes to realize he can’t stay a wallflower forever. These short films are part of the same screening on April 26th (Tuesday), at Cinema São Jorge, at 10h30 and, afterwards, at 14h30.
