Brilliant! What a great social statement by a group of young women.
The storyline follows a teen, Luna and her negative experiences around menstruation. When her mother gives her a cup, but Luna experiences how complicated it is to utilize at her high school, where there is no clean water in sinks and toilets.
Her anger makes her approach to demand clean water from the Principal, who is clueless. When her best friend stains her pants and can't rinse them out, Luna decides to organize a protest with her classmates and collect rainwater.
Well shot, great audio, excellent acting, poignant topic. Love the exit music! This short film would make a wonderful film to show at an event that is addressing youth empowerment.
I give this 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

Luna is fourteen years old and she doesn't like to menstruate. When her mother gives her a cup as a gift, the excitement of using it does not last long when Luna experiences how complicated it is to utilize in her high school, where there isn't clean water in sinks and toilets. Her anger makes her approach to demand clean water from the Principal, but Luna does not dare to explain that she needs this vital liquid to facilitate her menstruation. It's not until her best friend is stained and cannot rinse her pants, that Luna decides to organize with her classmates to protest and collect rainwater.
