Who it's for
Frances Ha is one of the few films that takes friendship attachment as seriously as a romance.
Feelings it meets
What it is
Frances, a 27-year-old apprentice dancer in New York, is thrown when her best friend and roommate Sophie moves to another neighborhood and gets serious with a boyfriend. Without the friendship that anchored her and without steady work, Frances drifts between apartments, takes an impulsive trip to Paris and slowly builds a life on her own terms.
