AFIN recognition

From the Judges, on GIRLS DON´T CRY (2026)

From the Judges, on GIRLS DON´T CRY

Six young women across different cultures share their journeys toward self-determination, their voices carrying the film with striking authenticity. Intimate, observational filmmaking treats each story with care, while montage passages weave the portraits into a broader global picture. A resonant soundtrack and the emotional honesty of the direction give this documentary its lasting weight.

Curated, anonymised highlights drawn from the judges' notes.
