How to Build a Girl is an irreverent coming-of-age comedy that traces the rocky road to womanhood through the lens of the unique and wildly hilarious Johanna Morrigan (Beanie Feldstein). Johanna is a bright, quirky, sixteen-year-old extrovert with raging hormones and gigantic dreams. Even though she loves her big, boisterous, dysfunctional family, Johanna knows with absolute certainty that there is something bigger and better for her out in the world. With her inimitable wit and bottomless imagination, writing is surely her ticket to a brand-new self. After a couple of false starts, Johanna wins a job at a top music magazine and reinvents herself as revered, feared and impossible-to-please music critic Dolly Wilde. But as her critical savagery brings her greater and greater success, the lines between Johanna Morrigan and Dolly Wilde begin to haze. Can she curate her success and still hold onto her family, her heroes and her heart? And once you’ve built your girl, is it possible to tear her down and start again? Based on the best-selling novel by Caitlin Moran and co-starring Alfie Allen, Paddy Considine, Chris O'Dowd and Emma Thompson, How to Build a Girl is about what it’s really like to be a girl.
