No se puede encontrar un retrato más acertado de una adolescente trans y de sus tribulaciones a causa de su diferencia social y del cuerpo en el que nació por accidente. La cuestión es si se disfrutará de una actuación tan íntimamente concebida y formalmente convencional, basada en la lectura de los sentimientos en su rostro desde el primer hasta el último minuto. A mi me divertió. Un personaje importante y simpático es su padre, que no puede ayudarla mentalmente, por mucho que lo intente. [Cannes]

Lara's story is so realistic that it makes your heart ache. Belgian director Lukas Dhont's feature film debut offers a sensitive and deep insight into the soul of a teenage girl trapped in a boy's body who longs to become a ballerina. She is willing to do almost anything for her dream. Victor Polster literally took my breath away with his extraordinary performance of the title role. The final denouement really shocked me, even though I subconsciously expected something similar. (85%)

The movie I had seen from Karlovy Vary, when unfortunately we did not get into the hall due to capacity reasons, turned out very well, especially emotionally. The Girl will definitely evoke some emotions in the viewer and leave a compassionate angle of view and tolerance in him after the screening. Lukas Dhont opted for a strongly European camera and focuses mainly on the expression on the face of the main character, and several times this claustrophobic style resonated with me, where usually during ballet lessons you do not see anywhere else than behind the head of the main character, evoking Mother by Arronofsky. Plot-wise, this piece is somewhat drier, basically only depicting dilemmas related to gender change, mental state, and surprisingly good family relationships, so I would rather categorize The Girl into those slightly more poetic waters. The strongest moment here is of course the shocking ending, which brings a tear to the eye and serves as another example of why I should appreciate that I will never have these concerns.
