Below, check out the first trailer for DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL, based on Phoebe Gloeckner's autobiographical graphic novel of the same name.

Starring Alexander Skarsgård and Kristen Wiig, the movie hits select theaters on August 7. The coming-of-age drama garnered rave reviews at this year's Sundance Film Festival.

Marielle Heller's "THE DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL," adapted from the hit graphic novel had its World Premiere at New York's 3LD Art & Technology Center in 2010. The multi-media production was directed by Sarah Cameron Sunde and Rachel Eckerling.

"THE DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL" is a story about female sexuality and unabashed optimism. Told from the point of view of fifteen-year old Minnie, Diary tells the story of her growing up in the chaos of the 1970s, in the haze that is San Francisco. Minnie is incredibly bright and self-reflective. She is gut-wrenchingly honest, and curious about the world around her. And she has just begun an affair with her mother's boyfriend, Monroe.
