Uma Thurman keeps it casual at the screening of her new movie, The Life Before Her Eyes, on Tuesday in New York City.

The drama thriller tells the story of teenage friends Diana and Maureen who are forced to make a painful choice when a gunman at their high school confronts them in the bathroom. Uma, who plays the older version of Diana, said she was instantly drawn to the story because she liked the script.

“I was so much reminded of how difficult and lonely it was to be a teenager and that experience,” she said. “At the same time the sort of shocking thing about random chaotic violence can do to our lives and I don’t know, it was very moving.”
