Beauty standards in today's world are a bit out of control. The lengths some people will go to attain what they believe is their ideal image are absolutely crazy. A nip here, a tuck there, and while we're at it we might as well fill your body with unnecessary plastics that will probably one day cause you harm. It starts to beg the question: is it really worth it?
In the short film below, French filmmaker Frederic Doazan, brilliantly captures the essence of chasing "the ideal body." The film harshly questions western beauty standards and paints an unsettling picture of the transformation some women will go to attain this unnatural idea of femininity. Whatever your stance on the issue may be Supervenus is a powerful film and one you surely won't want to miss. Check it out below.
