We wanted to tackle situations, where their strengths are often doubted and to show them how spectacular it is to be a girl who is confident, creative, inquisitive, brave and nurturing.
Our story is told through a narrator who describes the situation of 5 different girls around the world and touches upon different aspects that are undermined in today’s society when it comes to women.

We realize that our project is addressing a complex problem that has been around for some time. This is our attempt to help at least one girl realize how truly special she is.
