This documentary is very interesting as it really goes deep into what young girls think, and it is quite sad because they just want to be thin. It shows a bit where a girl is crying so much because she wants to be thin.

They say they want to be noticed, they don’t want to be a pile of bones and they don’t want to be really big, they don’t really know what normal is anymore.

The look of pizza disgusted one girl and she didn’t even want to look at it as she was just living on fruit, the documentary follows on with trying to get her to be normal and get her well.

I thought the documentary was wicked, it proper gets to you into it, and it makes you feel how the girls are feeling that suffer from it.
