My Mirrors

About This Movie

So, 'My Mirrors' is a rather intimate look at a young girl's struggle with anorexia. It’s raw, you know? The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really sit with Júlia’s turmoil. The atmosphere feels heavy, almost claustrophobic at times, reflecting her mental state. What stands out is the simplicity of the practical effects—they don't overdo it, yet you feel her internal battle. The performances are poignant; the supporting cast really elevates her journey of recovery. It’s a film that doesn’t shy away from the complexities of mental health, and while it may not have a big-name director, its authenticity leaves a mark. You get a sense of hope alongside the struggle, which is a delicate balance that it manages to hold.
