Doc/Fest Presents: All This Panic 15

Filmed over three years by first-time director Jenny Gage, this empathetic and incisive documentary follows a group of Brooklyn teenagers as they make the sometimes uneasy transition from late childhood to womanhood. Sweet, shy Lena has to fend for herself owing to a troubled family life, while her best friend, Ginger, becomes besotted with make-up, clothes and partying. The girls’ changes in character and physicality remind us how rapidly life can progress, often with awkward or unexpected consequences.
