This emotionally charged program profiles four young women
attempting to recover from anorexia nervosa. Ranging in age from 14 to 25, they struggle
to gain weight while dealing with associated conditions such as osteoporosis and
depression, family dysfunctionality, and a mindset that equates starvation with
self-control. Filmed at the adolescent eating disorder unit of Westmead Hospital in Sydney
and a private outpatient clinic, the program captures the complexities of a devastating
psychological disorder that drives women to continuously lose weight—even if it kills
them. (47 minutes, color)
