Barely Recognizable (2022)
A movie musical about eating disorder recovery and overcoming perceptions of perfection. It follows the first couple of weeks of college for Gracie, a young woman who has (mostly) recovered from an eating disorder. As she attempts to forge a new identity on campus, her new surroundings and the challenges associated with her transition to college life cause the recovery to teeter. With the help of Isa, a drop-dead gorgeous sophomore beauty queen, Gracie ultimately discovers that recovery is not linear, but rather, takes several twists and turns along the way.
