Sara is so cool. There's so many parts of this that made me really emotional. Thinking about how many of those young girls' outlooks on life are forever shaped by having Sara in their community. Near the end, something happens that, while unfortunately I know happens in general, was still shocking to watch play out on screen. Overall, very glad I got to see this.
