Hike up your skirt a little more and show the world to me. 

The average girl, Christine or the self proclaimed ’Lady Bird’ is living amidst a stressful relationship with her mom. Stressful enough to compel her to jump out of moving car.

She survives. Itching to exit her stasis, Sacramento and enter spaces where ‘the culture’ is alive.

Though the story takes a predictable route one will find themselves connecting to simple moments which most of us experience, but none of us talk about. The honest proclamation of how we don’t like being left alone, buying the perfect dress at a thrift shop, the nervousness of opening replies to college application letters and finding out that you are on a waiting list. It is all there. 

Watch it, feel it, smile.
