Taglines: "Being a girl is hard" (Russian: Трудно быть девочкой); "Not so child games" (Russian: Недетская игра)

Three lower-class Moscow high school girlfriends, Katya, Vika and Zhanna, learn that there will be a school disco on the coming Saturday night. They start preparations to what seems to be the most important moment in their life.

Production

The film depicts issues of child alcoholism and violence in Russia. In order to appear more realistic, the actors consumed large quantities of alcohol and tobacco on camera, performed fight scenes without stunts and used many mat profanities. However, the main protagonists were all played by adult professional actors.
