Never Rarely Sometimes Always


Women and girls have to fight in many subtle as well as overt ways to own and take ownership of their own bodies. I'm hoping this film tackles a few of those (uncomfortable to discuss or difficult to vocalize) issues.  At a time when women find themselves in fear of losing or already not having rights over their own fucking bodies,  this film deserves a chance.



NEVER RARELY SOMETIMES ALWAYS
Focus Features
Release Date: March 13, 2020

Written and Directed by: Eliza Hittman

Written and directed by Eliza Hittman, the film is an intimate portrayal of two teenage girls in rural Pennsylvania. Faced with an unintended pregnancy and a lack of local support, Autumn (Sidney Flanigan) and her cousin Skylar (Talia Ryder) embark across state lines to New York City on a fraught journey of friendship, bravery and compassion.
