Sébastien Lifshitz's Little Girl is an official selection of Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2021.

Sasha has known she was a girl since she was just three years old, but her second-grade teachers refuse to accept her gender identity. In this remarkable documentary, Sébastien Lifshitz (Les invisibles) embeds with Sasha’s family for a year as they confront dismissive school administrators. But the film dwells equally on Sasha’s everyday life outside of school—we see her at home with her loving parents and siblings, who encourage her to express herself freely, and alongside her unfaltering mother Karine in appointments with child psychiatrists, who validate Sasha’s experiences. With immense sensitivity and empathy, Little Girl follows Sasha and her family as they strive to reclaim an ordinary childhood, while capturing the social stigmas that still persist around gender dysphoria. A Music Box Film release.
