Creative Nonfiction | Dir. Lena Dunham | Starring: Lena Dunham, Grace Dunham, Eleonore Hendricks | DVD | 60min | USA | 2009 | English
Lena Dunham's first feature film, which she brought to SXSW as a 22-year-old, sees the future "voice of a generation" with her feet already planted in the middle of the life-art Venn diagram. She plays Ella, a college student working through some now-familiar issues—noncommittal boys, unsexy sex, creative block, this century's lowered expectations of privacy—while also starring in her own John Waters-inspired student film.
