Box of Salvation is a raw documentary that dives deep into the world of anorexia through the eyes of Cheryl Nasso. It’s stark, often uncomfortable, but really captures the struggle of battling such a serious illness. The pacing feels intentional—there are moments of real tension juxtaposed with quiet reflection. Cheryl's journey from being hospitalized at a mere 85 pounds to competing in the 2011 Reebok CrossFit Games is nothing short of remarkable. The film does a good job of highlighting the physical and mental challenges she faced, and it doesn't shy away from the darker aspects of her battle. It's a unique take on the themes of redemption and resilience, stripped of glamor, focusing instead on the sheer grit of survival.
