La pipa es lo de menos is a poignant exploration of eating disorders within Puerto Rican society, especially among children. The film dives deep into the nuances of family dynamics and societal expectations, creating a heavy but necessary atmosphere. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to sit with the discomfort and reality of the characters' struggles. Performances are raw and unfiltered, with actors portraying vulnerability and strength in equal measure. What stands out is its unflinching look at a sensitive topic, without glamorization or oversimplification. The practical effects, though not the focus, subtly enhance the emotional impact, grounding it in a palpable reality. It's a compelling piece that asks us to reflect on deeper issues often hidden beneath the surface.
