The “thin girls“ are eight young women between 18 and 29 years old who have long suffered from eating disorders. You have starved to self-dissolve and can't just stop it. Diagnosis: anorexia. The disease eats into her life - until the complete takeover of power. What moves people to literally starve to death despite material abundance? Maria Teresa Camoglio has been looking for answers in a therapy facility for dysfunctional young women. She lets the young women talk about their suffering from anorexia and thus gains a new unobstructed view of anorexia. The disease, which is often dismissed as a fad, shows its life-threatening brutality here. If you are trapped in it, you can't just start eating again. First, as one of the girls explains, there is the seductive addiction to the high feeling that hunger can convey for a time. But soon control slips away and turns into coercion.
Directed by Maria Teresa Camoglio
