Beproeven (Belgium) by Karlijn Reynaerts
3m 10s
A film that plunges viewers into the disorienting world of a person with Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). Food, for them, is not sustenance but a trigger for overwhelming anxiety and disgust. The world around them bombards them with distorted textures, smells, and tastes, a sensory labyrinth they desperately try to navigate. The film employs a striking visual style. Fragmented images, rapid cuts, and distorted close-ups create a sense of unease, mirroring the protagonist's internal struggle. The narrative unfolds through a poetic tapestry of visuals and sounds.
