GIRL FIGHT

Directed by Stephen Gyllenhaal. When the senior "in crowd" pulls in 16-year-old Haley (Jodelle Ferland), old friends fall away in favor of unchaperoned parties that include drinking and spin the bottle.

Based on real events, this drama raises issues relating to peer pressure, media pressure, victim’s trauma, and the difficult search for justice. Grades 5 and up.
