Brave Girl Rising

Warsan Shire, the UK’s former young poet laureate and social media phenom behind Beyoncé’s Lemonade, incorporates elements of magic realism and moving poetry in the screenplay. Tessa Thompson, who is the voice of the film, is not only Hollywood’s hottest new star (Creed 2, Westworld, Thor, the upcoming Men in Black reboot), but as one of the founding members of Time’s Up, she’s a powerful advocate for women in her own right.
