Stand Up Girl Synopsis

Lila, grows up in the high-rises of the Marolles in Brussels. Along with her sister and her friends, she dreams of becoming a dancer and revolutionising the world of hip-hop. While her friends stay in Brussels, Lila leaves everything - comfort, family - behind to go to Paris, where she is certain her persistence will pay off. Except that life in Paris quickly takes an unexpected turn. The woman who dreamed of being a choreographer ends up as a lap dancer in a rap video, and that’s only the beginning of her disillusionment. After a chance meeting with a drama teacher, she bears her heart and soul on stage and begins doing stand-up. This time, her unusual dedication leads her to find her calling. However, she still has to fight one final battle: convincing her father that she has made the right choice.

It seemed like the trailer was for a different version of the film. The final cut must've changed the story because what was promised appeared to only be on screen for a few minutes. The protagonist isn't somebody you can really connect with as she always seems hostile and ungrateful towards others. That makes it difficult to root for her or feel sad for what happens to her. And when the trailer's story finally starts, it abruptly ends - but doesn't end the movie, which somehow keeps going and really ends, but abruptly once again. The writers or director seemingly had trouble deciding when and how to end the film. It feels like there was an idea that developed, changed and somehow didn't fit with the beginning. All in all, I was left with an annoyed feeling and a "wut?" face.
