Some cycles can't be broken
Synopsis
Ana wakes up every day with a burden on her heart. She has a secret, a
pain too difficult for some to understand. Shame and guilt; they’re
difficult emotions to live with. We all need something to release the
pain. Some people choose cigarettes, drugs, or alcohol. For others,
food is the answer. Ana works hard everyday to get rid of this horribleaddiction, but sometimes hard work is not enough.

Notes from the author
Writing on this subject was both challenging and effortless. It waschallenging because I had to confront old emotions. At the same time I
found the experience to be effortless because food addiction is something I
understand on a very personal level.
Women are judged by their appearances and feel that in order to beaccepted by others they must be beautiful. We want to please. We want to
be liked. We feel the need to look perfect for people. All we want in return
is their love.
Food will always be a part of our lives. The relationship millions of womenhave with food becomes complicated when there are deeper wounds that
need to be healed. To truly honor our souls we must delve deeper into this
matter. Emotional eating is only the tip of the iceberg. This is so muchmore than that.
We have to grant freedom to our true selves that we have wrongly
imprisoned.

I'm so proud of the people that
helped me on this project. I am
fortunate that aside from being
extremely talented artists, they are
also my friends. They helped megain confidence in myself to express
my own voice using art as a tool.
Production notes
A four person crew was all that was needed to adequately film
this short. It was shot using only a Canon 550D camera, a dolly,and sparse lighting. A healthy dose of ingenuity and
determination allowed our intimate crew to achieve success in
filming this very emotional short film
I met lead actor Rachel Stander at
Judith Weston's “Actor-Director”
Workshop in Los Angeles. Ithought she was immensely
talented. When I wrote "Binge" I
could not get her face out of my
mind; she was perfect for the roll
I believe that her ability to express emotions without words is
admirable.
