Girl Gang

When teen influencer Leonie steps onto the stage at a shopping mall, screaming girls with flashing cell phone cameras thrust forward towards the barrier. On social media, the 14-year-old girl from Berlin reaches over a million fans who are willing to give everything to meet their idol just once in real life. Leonie's parents have long since recognised their daughter's economic potential and have taken over managing her. But Leonie pays a high price for having her life on permanent display. The documentary by Sue Meures offers an intimate glimpse into the teenager's family life and follows her into the fascinating yet alienating world of influencers. What begins as a modern-day fairy tale soon reveals its darker sides. Age rating: from 12 years
