Details

Title: Unspeakable Hunger

Storyline: 'Unspeakable Hunger' is a psychological short film that delves into the silent battles of eating disorders, control, and self-worth.

The story follows Laura, a 20-year-old woman who has become consumed by body image obsession and isolation. Within her mind lives Anna, a cold and commanding figure who represents perfection and the societal ideals Laura feels she must live up to.

As Laura becomes increasingly detached from reality, a visit from her childhood friend Mia brings back warmth and shared memories—forcing Laura to confront the damaging patterns she’s trapped in.

This is a powerful, emotionally charged student project that explores the mental landscape of disordered eating and the redemptive nature of female friendship.

The role of Anna provides a compelling challenge for actors interested in expressive and symbolic storytelling.
