Rachel McAdams, left, and Abby Ryder Fortson star in “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret,” a beloved coming-of-age story about a sixth-grade girl navigating puberty, friendship and faith. The film screens at 7 p.m. July 19 at the Kingston Library, 61 Crown St., as part of the Movies With Spirit community series.
At 11, Margaret Simon is wrestling with life’s big questions: boys, bras, periods — and whether she believes in God. Uprooted to the New Jersey suburbs from New York City, she’s navigating new friendships, shifting loyalties and her own sense of belonging. Based on Judy Blume’s beloved novel, “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret” is a warm, funny and fearless coming-of-age story that captures the messy, joyful truth of growing up.
