Anorexia My Love

About This Movie

So, 'Anorexia My Love'—it's this intriguing black and white animation from 2020. The director is a bit of a mystery, which adds to its allure, I think. The surreal visuals create a haunting atmosphere, pulling you into a dreamlike state that's hard to shake off. The pacing is interesting, almost meditative at times, allowing the themes of obsession and self-perception to unfold gradually. There’s a rawness to the practical effects that feels both unsettling and beautiful. The lack of dialogue emphasizes the visuals, letting the animation's impact speak for itself. It’s definitely distinctive, existing in this weird space between fantasy and stark reality, which you don't see often in animation.
