description The study deals with tomboyism from the perspective of past and current psychiatric and sociological research, and proposes a new approach to this liminal phenomenon operating in-between binary opposites of traditional femininity and masculinity.

It also challenges usual interpretations of tomboy narratives, as is shown on the analysis of two films with tomboyish characters – Robert Mulligan’s To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) and Céline Sciamma’s Tomboy (2011).
