The Girl is a drama film directed by Lucas DeHoot and starring Victor Bost and Valentin Darnes, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 12, 2018. The film tells the story of Laura, a talented transgender dancer who faces challenges at school in addition to grueling training.

Originally a 15-year-old boy, Laura was a talented dancer who joined a dance academy in Belgium. There, children train in grueling, physically demanding classes that often leave their feet bleeding, muscle strains and bruises. Laura must muster the courage to continue on the path she has chosen, yearning for surgery to change her gender, dancing so gracefully and beautifully. When she danced with the other girls, the girls were all trying to get themselves on her side.

Dr. Pascal Valentin Dannes Surgical Therapist. He tried to have sex change surgery on Laura, but Laura had to wrap her genitals so hard that she could fit into a leotard in order to hide her masculine features. Laura even started hurting herself, a process that made her long-cherished sex change surgery unsuccessful.

Behind the Scenes In 2009, director Lucas de Hoot saw a piece of news in a local Belgian newspaper about a girl who wanted to be a ballerina, but had the wrong gender. She wanted to be a real girl. The director was only 18 at the time and was going through his own identity crisis, and the story inspired him. Lucas DeHoot decided to make the story into a movie.

Film evaluation The film is a film with human charm, the director is skillful and compassionate. As Lucas de Hoot's impressive debut, it looks good in a totally natural blend of Dutch and French. He's not afraid to tackle difficult subjects, and cast lead Victor Bost into an actor with acting and dancing.

The film shows empathy for its subject. In the world of ballet, the human body is bent and reshaped by the force of the will, providing fertile ground for this transformation process. The camera's depiction of Laura's body makes sense because it's her place of focus and her own battleground.
