“A coming-of-age tale that has hints of Larry Clark's Kids and Eliza Hittman's Never Rarely Sometimes Always in the way it presents a teenage girl as one wrong sexual liaison away from disaster.” — Cineuropa

Teenagers Maya and Jana are inseparable and do everything together. Headstrong Jana usually takes the lead and Maya follows. One night at a party they catch Elena, the most popular girl in school, having sex on video with Maya’s long term crush. Jana convinces Maya to post the video and when it goes viral, Elena’s life is ruined. A heated confrontation between the three girls leaves Elena missing and Maya wanting to go to the police, but that isn’t what Jana wants. Maya becomes Jana’s new target and she must find the courage to get out of her toxic relationship and confront the secret that threatens to ruin her life.

By taking the point-of-view of a teenage girl who shames another girl, Sisterhood presents a perspective rarely explored in contemporary cinema. The result is a strong character drama about toxic friendships, culpability, responsibility and double-standards that it told with integrity and authenticity.
