 Advice to Adventurous Girls is an experimental portrait of Lillian La France (1894 -1979), a Kansas farm girl who ran away with a traveling carnival and went on to become a world renowned motorcycle daredevil on her Wall of Death. Optically printed, hand processed, color, black and white and negative images, as well as Lillian s home movies recreate the filmmaker s journey as a hired detective who ultimately uncovers an unanswerable question: How does a person recover lost faith in herself?
