The everywoman story of a girl's first time putting a tampon in.

Natalie is a 20yearold girl who has never used a tampon. When she gets her period before a family trip to the beach, she decides it’s time to finally make it happen. She enlists help from her mom and younger sister, but to her dismay has no luck. Determined, Natalie attempts to tackle the task on her own, resorting to YouTube videos and indecipherable instructions… but she struggles with discomfort, fear, and a general lack of knowledge about her body, leaving her exasperated. Will Natalie be able to meet her goal? And why is she so set on doing it right now? Will her family be any help, or will she be forced to face herself all alone?

"By telling this story, my goal is to help normalize the conversation around periods and women’s bodies. Many women and girls experience feelings of taboo or shame surrounding their period. Until we can talk openly about menstruation and women’s bodies, this stigma and discomfort will continue."
Rylee Rosenquist, Director
