about
growing up. It looks at the trials and pitfalls of adolescence
that can occur when moral support is lacking for a young
teenager. The film follows Alicia, a shy and mild mannered
girl who moves to a new school, only to be seduced by
the wild and dangerous ways of a few of her peers. Her
problems with her parents and sister send her right
into the arms of Milena, another troubled teen who sells
her body to men for new clothes and cell phones without
any qualms. Soon enough, Milena has Alicia following
in her footsteps, and we unfortunately watch as Alicia's
youthful innocence is stripped from her. Partly a criticism
of today's materialistic youth culture, Mall Girls examines
the interplay between lacking familial values and grotesque
consumerism. Roslaniec introduces us to a world where
these girls look for any sort of sensation just to forget
about their own loneliness.
