Anorexia mentalis

In a quiet urban neighborhood, a young woman’s relentless pursuit of perfection hides a fragile inner world. She navigates a maze of mirrors—societal pressures, family expectations, and the chilling whispers of self-critique—while clinging to routines that promise control. As her days shrink to meals, measurements, and the hollow ache of fatigue, those closest to her begin to notice the fracture lines. A tentative thread of connection emerges through a compassionate confidant and a fragile support network, revealing that courage can take the form of reaching out rather than retreating. The film explores resilience, vulnerability, and the quiet, persistent labor of healing.
