A raw, raucous, yet tender study of a group of black high-school students living in the banlieues of Paris, Sciamma’s third feature centres on Marieme (Karidja Touré), a shy 16-year-old who falls in with a crew of three tough-talking girls after her low grades prevent her from continuing her studies. In the face of peer pressure and the need to continually push the limits, Marieme finds herself navigating dangerous waters, but she soon finds a way to empower herself and assert her own voice. Highlighted by an already classic scene in which the “gang of girls” bonds by belting out Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” Girlhood is a major step forward that marks Sciamma as a singular talent.

Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
