Storia
After experiencing severe, debilitating allergic reactions to food, a young woman named Cora decides to leave her old life behind and joins a radical spiritual community known for its unique belief system. The community claims that they are nourished by light alone, a practice known as inedia. Despite initial skepticism, Cora immerses herself into this new way of living, hoping to find relief from her allergies. As she becomes more deeply involved with the group, she begins to question her own beliefs and the nature of human dependency on food.
Riassunto
In 'Inedia', Canadian director Liz Cairns offers a thought-provoking exploration of health issues and social critique through the lens of a young woman's journey towards spiritual sustenance. The film follows Cora, who after severe allergic reactions to food, joins an unconventional community that claims to be nourished by light alone. This unique premise allows 'Inedia' to delve into themes of self-discovery, communal living, and the boundaries between faith and reality. Set against the backdrop of a contemporary world where health concerns and alternative lifestyles are increasingly prevalent, 'Inedia' serves as a timely commentary on society's relationship with food and its impact on our bodies and minds.
