A Girl Like Him
A one-night-only screening event of the award-winning film A Girl Like Him, directed by Amy S. Weber is a special fundraising initiative to support pop icon, Cyndi Lauper’s, True Colors United and Detroit’s, Humble Design to support ending youth homelessness.
A Girl Like Him is a coming-of-age drama that has already garnered critical acclaim, winning “Best Of” awards at prestigious film festivals including Cannes World Film Festival, Toronto International Women’s Festival, and New York’s Cinema Awards. The film tells the story of a small-town, non-binary teen navigating the complexities of identity, love, and friendship. A Girl Like Him is a follow-up to Weber’s critically-acclaimed 2015 film A Girl Like Her, which brought the issue of bullying to the forefront through the story of a high school girl who is pushed to the brink by her peers. This new film builds on Weber’s commitment to telling powerful, socially relevant stories.
The evening promises an unforgettable experience, combining the Michigan premiere of a powerful new film with a meaningful cause. Come walk the red carpet and mingle with the stars.
