About the Film
Welcome to North Shore High, where popularity is currency and social survival is a full-time job. Mean Girls, the iconic teen comedy directed by Mark Waters and written by Tina Fey, has become a cultural phenomenon since its release in 2004. With razor-sharp wit, unforgettable one-liners, and a surprisingly heartfelt core, it’s more than just a comedy—it’s a generational classic.
Synopsis
Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) has lived in Africa her whole life, but nothing has prepared her for the wild terrain of American high school. When she enters the social jungle of North Shore, she’s welcomed by the school’s elite clique: the Plastics. Led by the ruthless and fabulous Regina George (Rachel McAdams), the Plastics are beautiful, powerful—and terrifying. But as Cady goes undercover to infiltrate their world, she finds herself caught in a whirlwind of lies, loyalty, and lipstick. Can she survive high school with her integrity—and sanity—intact?
