''Tiny Furniture'' is a 2010 American independent comedy-drama written by, directed by, and starring Lena Dunham. It premiered at South by Southwest, where it won Best Narrative Feature, screened at such festivals as Maryland Film Festival, and was released theatrically in the United States on November 12, 2010. Dunham’s own mother, the artist Laurie Simmons, plays Aura’s mother, while her real sister, Grace, plays Aura’s on-screen sibling. The actors Jemima Kirke and Alex Karpovsky would also appear in Dunham's television series ''Girls''. ==Plot== Aura returns home from her Midwest liberal arts college to her artist family’s TriBeCa loft with nothing but a film studies degree, a failed relationship and a lack of direction. She takes a job as a hostess at a restaurant and falls into relationships with two self-centered men while struggling to define herself. The film focuses on the relationship of Aura with her mother, Siri, a successful photographer. Aura reads her mother's teenage journals, perhaps for guidance or inspiration. In the film's final scene, Aura confesses to having read the journals; her mother says she doesn't mind. Aura asks about her mother's many male friends at that time, and her mother responds that she had been experimenting, as Aura is doing now. That moment of understanding contrasts with the conflict between the two for most of the film. The film's title refers to her mother's signature photographic subject, miniature furniture. The film also focuses on Aura's relationship with her 17-year-old sister Nadine, and Aura's best friend from childhood, Charlotte. All three—Aura, Nadine, and Charlotte—are budding artists, which provides for exploration of their planned paths as well as rivalry between Aura and the other two. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tiny Furniture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
