Christine 'Lady Bird' McPherson is a strong-willed teenager navigating her final year of high school in Sacramento. Desperate for a life beyond her means and her mother's expectations, she clashes, schemes, and stumbles her way toward adulthood — while the city she can't wait to leave quietly shapes who she's becoming.
Why We Chose This Film
“Greta Gerwig's solo directorial debut is a love letter disguised as a coming-of-age story. The mother-daughter relationship at its centre is so precisely observed it borders on documentary. If you've ever left a small town and then missed it terribly, this one will find you.”
