[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just finished watching the movie. As someone who has family in France and who goes there often, it was very relatable. The sexualized dance routine was just a small part of the movie. The main theme was how family dysfunction negatively affects young children, causing them to rebel against their family’s traditions, religion, etc. In this case, it was a young Muslim girl and the director was obviously going for the shock factor (and obviously it worked judging by the comments on this thread). Those saying it’s CP have obviously not watched the movie in its entirety. [/quote]

+1. I don't even  think you need a connection to France either to find it relatable. I thought it was a really well done movie about the lives of girls and adolescence shot from an [u]obviously[/u] female perspective. The dance routine was really pretty minimal and again,. reflective of the culture girls are being raised in. I thought it was almost endearing how they were trying to sexualize themselves, but were actually pretty goofy and awkward. That's reflective of a lot of women's experiences as they are going through puberty and learning how to shape themselves for the world's view and particularly, the male gaze. As a woman, it was almost cute. Like you'd have to already be a gross pedophile who walks around in the summer looking for pre-teens in short shorts to find it really sexual and anything approaching "child porn." The pearl clutching seems entirely unwarranted to me. It sort of reminds me of when the movie 13 came out in 2003 and people FREAKED OUT. [/quote]

9 out of 10 girls like this were on the fast track to dropping out and having kids from various men.  They know very well most of their classmates are not dressing like that, acting like that, or dancing like that. [/quote]
