Girl in Progress
A tale of acting up, acting out, and acting your age.
Directed by Patricia Riggen
Produced by Pantelion Films
A warm, character-driven comedy-drama about a mother and daughter navigating the messy realities of growing up, with humor and heart grounding its exploration of adolescence and parental struggle.
As single mom Grace juggles work, bills, and her affair with a married doctor, her daughter, Ansiedad, plots a shortcut to adulthood after finding inspiration in the coming-of-age stories she's reading for school.
