Alis (film)
2022 documentary film
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alis is a 2022 documentary film, directed by Clare Weiskopf and Nicolás van Hemelryck.[1] A co-production between Colombia, Chile and Romania, the film centres on ten teenage girls at a boarding school in Bogotá. In order to provide a safe and supportive entry point to the painful truths of each girl's experience, the filmmakers frame the story through asking each girl to imagine that they have a new classmate named Alis, and to describe both her and their own relationship with her.[2]
