It focuses on two women occupying neighboring apartments, each one grappling with psychological disorders that begin to overtake their lives.[3] According to the film’s press release: "With images of sumptuous food and sensual enjoyment, the film explores the intimacy between the two through their connection with food, eating disorders and sex. In a battle of wills, one woman overflows with illusions and fearlessly faces life while the other withdraws from everything and fearlessly faces death."[4]
