France, 2014, 112', DCP, color
French with Turkish subtitles

A raw, raucous, yet tender study of a group of black high-school students living in the banlieues of Paris, Sciamma’s third feature centres on Marieme (Karidja Touré), a shy 16-year-old who falls in with a crew of three tough-talking girls after her low grades prevent her from continuing her studies. In the face of peer pressure and the need to continually push the limits, Marieme finds herself navigating dangerous waters, but she soon finds a way to empower herself and assert her own voice. Highlighted by an already classic scene in which the “gang of girls” bonds by belting out Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” Girlhood is a major step forward that marks Sciamma as a singular talent.

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
