How the Girl Did It is a feature-length queer retelling of Louisa May Alcott’s novella Behind a Mask, written under the male pseudonym A.M. Bernard in 1866. Behind a Mask is in the public domain and has never been adapted into film or TV. Well, until now.

LOGLINE

In the heat of the Victorian era, a crafty young governess manipulates the wealthy Coventry family in order to escape destitution and provide safe haven for those she loves.
