Written and directed by Christy Hall, the movie first debuted at the Telluride Film Festival last year and will now be released in theatres.
Executive producer Ro Donnelly stated toIndieWire, that Girlie is a pretty emotionally reflective role, who holds her power.
“Because she is our generation of women who are still approaching these men in a nonjudgmental way because it’s fascinating. We’re not threatened by it. And that reveals her power, the fact that she holds her own. She really is reflective of all the women who made this movie, she’s our girl.”
