to my past self, to my present self

About This Movie

So, this short documentary, 'to my past self, to my present self' by Erica Dafon, really gets into some heavy themes. It’s pretty introspective, you know? Dafon dives deep into her own concerns around body image, desire, and that elusive sense of belonging. The pacing feels very deliberate, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the visuals and her reflections. There’s a rawness to it, which makes it distinct; it’s not overly polished, but that’s what gives it its heart. The atmosphere is kind of haunting, yet familiar. You can see her grappling with these personal battles, and it feels intimate. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind long after it ends.
