CONCEPT: There’s a pervasive obsession with female beauty, demanding that we invest time, energy, and resources into image-making in pursuit of happiness, often at the expense of truly being who we are. It’s time to make sense of this, because what’s normalized isn’t always what’s true or right.
RESULT: A deeply personal and thought-provoking cross-cultural journey that unpacks the quiet yet powerful forces shaping women’s relationship with beauty. Through raw conversations and immersive storytelling, the film unravels the societal conditioning, unspoken expectations, and deeper truths behind power, desirability, and self-worth – ultimately seeking to redefine beauty beyond the mirror in an image-driven world.
Featured speakers, amongst others, include Jean Kilbourne, Seane Corn, Katharine Nitta, and Vandana Shiva.
