21° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL
Italian Competition

Sei quello che mangi

You Are What You Eat

Country: Italy
Year: 2003
Duration: 12


Renata is busy with her first day at work. Like many other young women, she doesn't really know what she wants to become, but she feels the risk of standardization and loss of identity that the world she is entering offers. During the day, the food/relationship/hierarchy net and the first responsibilities she gets, force her to integrate. It is an integration which is not a choice, but the feeling of being part of something. Like the smells of a fast food place stay, routine and the need to belong, represent the only hopes for our smooth and fast food lives, of our inconsistent fast lives.
