    Tomboy was written and directed by Celine Sciamma and released in France in 2011. It follows the story of a 10-year old non-confirming child who moves to a new neighbour in the summer holiday and adopts the name Mickael while presenting as a boy. An important film that reflects the childhood of many girls and trans people.

Hayao Miyazaki in an interview (tinyurl.com/4b5sgaa) stated in an interview that is intention in making the film was to create a role model for young girls to look up to which was not simply damsel in distress looking for her…
