Tomboy (2011) is a tender and honest exploration of gender identity and childhood made by the award-winning writer and film director Céline Sciamma. The film follows a gender non-conforming child, Laure, as they move to a new neighbourhood and adopt the identity of Mickäel amongst their new friends. Sciamma is best known for her films Portrait of a Lady on Fire and My Life as a Courgette.

The film has been chosen by Cornwall-based theatre director and performer Agnieszka Blonska, who has recently directed a production inspired by Virginia Woolf’s Orlando at Theatre Powszechny in Warsaw. She works in both Poland and the UK and is an Associate Artist at Hall for Cornwall and a Senior Lecturer at Falmouth University.
