A Girl Like Her

Dir: Amy S. Weber

2015

This is a bloody important movie with some incredibly talented and underrated actresses. The story of a girl who commits suicide and ends up in hospital whilst a documentary team is filiming around the school. The girls friend had given her a hidden camera to record the bullying that Avery was doing to her. It's harrowing and incredible truthful to the situation. It's heartbreaking, poignant and brilliant.
This film deserves more love than it gets because it's a very harrowing and realistic portrayal of bullying and the effects.
