Tears of Ana Mia Part 1

Please note: Part II contains graphical content that some might find triggering. Do not watch part II if you are sensitive to triggering.

I have been asked a few times now where I got the sound track from. I purchased the license for the music from Partners in Rhym. The album's name is Ethereal landscapes and the song's name is Genesis. I didn't purchase it from the music info that's being displayed on the right.

This is a university project that I made to raise awareness for eating disorders. It was originally going to be a 30 minute movie with characters and a storyline but due to the usual problems of crew pulling out at last minute, budget and time, I couldn't make the project I wanted, but it still has the same purpose, raising awareness. It ended up being a trial movie for the bigger production I'm planning, which will go in more detail on the topics of anxiety, anorexia, bulimia and depression. If anyone would like to share their stories please contact me. I cut the production in two parts. Just would like to thank all the girls who helped me researched by sharing their stories! There are two versions to this movie, one for youtube which has the subtitles and then the other one has narration, which I'll be sending to film festivals.

This is very touching. Very good job on capturing the reality of these disorders in such a creative way

This is the best video I've ever seen! It looks so professional, something from hollywood or something. This is quite astonishing. :)

@OmfgitsRickylawl There actually is one. It's a BBC documentary called I'm a Boy Anorexic. It's quite good. The only downside is that the boys are young. It's still worth the watch though

4:26 the girls eyes are AWESOME

[OmfgitsRickylawl]

There`s allways documentarys and movies about GIRLS with eating disorders! If anything, there should be an awareness video about BOYS with ED.

I`ve had both anorexia and bulimia for 7 years now...but still, there`s only focus on the girls. I am not an athlet or anything like that. just a regualy guy living in Norway, who have this illness and depression, anxiety as a followup to the desease. Been to hospital 9 times, and nearly died 2. WE struggle just as much.

this provoked so many emotions especially when they said that people who need to love them most don't and when the girl had words covering her body it's exactly like my life

[shoemyday]

this is the most fantastic movie / short film i've ever seen. i'm one of those kids, who got stuck in anorexia for years, and later bulimia. i've hurt so many people around me, and my body won't ever heal completely. it's a horrible disease. this film should be shown in every fucking school world wide.

wowza..

[JojoplusBo]

This is very deep & powerful..... I feel it needs to be put on prime time tv. world wide.

The Creator of this video - a masterpiece ...it supercedes 'a job WELL done, by far'! I wish you much success...and thankyou to the uploader. Its not the 'perfect' post but I mean everything from 'my heart'.
