Very effective.  Important message.

I love how she "fed" her obsessions. There was the influence all around her. She was overcome by the fact that she ate all this that her obsession of food caused her to depend on those. They were her only friends. Good job! Strong Message

That had a great message, but it was very confussing,maby less editing :p

[dimabbq]

a bit too much of the fancy editing detracts from the story and message of the film.

pretty intense vid, needs less titles and stuff tho, think more should be left up too the watcher too make connections. :) cool vid tho

Provocative film making. I like it!

Finally, some thought provoking film. Good job!

The message is really good, but the surrealistic filming style was really aggravating to me, and I think it detracted.

Great job! I love the music, and the acting was really good!
