GIRL BEAST

Denmark

“I can only desire, if I am desired”.

Girl Beast is a psychological drama with a magical and heightened reality, that tells a Lolita story from Lolita's point of view. Sara is a girl beast, an object of desire and a being of desire. The story is adapted from Cecilie Lind’s novel. It balances between self-assertion and self-destruction. Loss and liberation. Powerlessness and power.
