My Body invites you on an interactive adventure of awareness which reveals how a society, obsessed with the physical attributes of women, breeds fears and anxieties that can cause crippling ailments. A funny and moving visual diary of one woman’s road to recovery, and an eloquent testimony to men and the healing powers of the mind.
