A film "Laminated Silence" by Kids Acting Workshop

LAMINATED SILENCE is a poetic coming-of-age film about belonging, identity, and the silent subtle pressure to conform at the cost of one's own authenticity

Mira enters a new world where she adapts by morphing to fit in with a confident, fast-moving group of girls. As Mira's longing to belong intensifies, she begins to betray the core aspects of herself; self-expression is negotiated, muted, and nearly lost - revealing how easily wanting acceptance can lead to dissolution and restructuring of the self
