I had no idea what this movie was about but I gave it a try. It was more of a musical montage than a narrative film so if you are into avant-garde and experimental films, you may like this.
It was likely a very personal film to someone with an eating disorder. In the end, it seems to focus more on style over substance. Lots of "artistic camera angles and claustrophobic close-ups. On one hand, it felt like the director didn't want the camera to play an intrusive part in the film by keeping it far away, but on the other hand, by doing that, the camera became intrusive as we are constantly reminded there is a camera by all the weird "artistic" shots.
If you wanna watch someone eat for 90 minutes this is your film. For me, it was really hard to watch and continue my interest. It reminded me of "A Ghost Story" another dreadful film that went nowhere.
It may have worked as a short film, but not as a feature as it grew tired very quickly. It was unbearable to watch.
