Belonging to the drama and thriller genres, the short film TO THE BODY tells the story of a woman in her mid-30s who secretly struggles with anxiety and depression. The film's structure mirrors her experience through constant loops and repetitive routines in everyday scenarios, staying close to the single main character. This repetition emphasizes how trapped she is in her own mind and how relentlessly cyclical her thoughts become. Throughout the film, the protagonist exhibits physical symptoms through performative movements, reflecting her search for self-improvement and healing. Her body cries out, validating each emotion as it surfaces, seeking to transcend the mind and return to the body. The film's primary aim is to give form and expression to the emotions silenced by those who have suffered-and continue to suffer-from depression or anxiety. Written by Xso See less
