Synopsis
Tall Girls – I’m one of them. I’m a filmmaker and 6’1“/186 cm tall. Life up here is different. Every pediatrician has a growth chart on the wall where even children can see whether they are normal or not. We live in a society in which those around us are continually letting us know whether we fit in or not. In this film, tall girls and women show how they’re coming to terms with their height. Between cries and laughter, one can’t help but fall in love with them as they bare their souls to show how difficult yet liberating living outside the norm can be.
