About Girl Unscripted
Family, love, heartbreak, opportunity, poverty, abuse, drugs…the life of a girl is complicated, and they frequently have no means of expressing themselves, or worse, no one who’ll listen. Relating to these struggles of teenage girls, award-winning filmmaker Tara Veneruso took this to heart and started a filmmaking camp to give girls the opportunity to express themselves and tell their stories.
As a survivor of physical, sexual, and drug abuse, Veneruso saw around her the same tragic circumstances for young women that she had experienced years before. If only someone had steered her onto a better path earlier. That thought inspired action. She created a summer filmmaking camp for girls that would give them an outlet to express themselves, a forum to tell stories, and a chance to understand their worth.
This documentary series spans more than 10 years, where we see teenagers/pre-teens transform into adult women and get a fascinating chance to experience life through the eyes of open and brave girls. The accounts Veneruso documents are raw, touching, sad, and hopeful. The trials and triumphs of a person’s life in her own words... a “Girl Unscripted.”
SPACEMOB entered a deal in December 2021, with the entity created by BrightStar Media Group and Capstone Entertainment Group to be the exclusive, worldwide distributor for their original limited series, Girl Unscripted.
The series, directed by Tara Veneruso, produced by Veneruso and SPACEMOB Chief Content Officer Eric Keith, and distributed by SPACEMOB, was submitted for consideration to numerous festivals and received awards and recognition in multiple categories.
