When her best friend and roommate abruptly moves out to get married, Susan (Melanie Mayron), trying to be an artist while making ends meet as a bar mitzvah photographer on Manhattan's Upper West Side, finds herself adrift in both life and love.
A wonder of American independent cinema, Claudia Weill's 1978 gem Girlfriends authentically captures the nuances and complexities of female friendship. Weill pioneered an entire sub-genre that captures the life and tensions of independent young women finding their way in New York City.

New, restored 4K digital transfer, supervised by director Claudia Weill and director of photography Fred Murphy
