You have mouths. We have ears.
Despite nearly 31 million Americans (NEDA) suffering from eating disorders, there is still a heavy stigma surrounding talking about eating disorders, making it hard for those batting eating disorders to voice their struggle. there is nothing scarier than isolation than when you support. Through the consumed film festival, we are amplifying the voices of those struggling to put a microphone to the silence to, eradicating the taboo that surrounds eating disorders, and giving those struggling a platform to convey their struggles to the public. Scroll down to find out more about the various categories filmmakers and those not experienced with video can submit to to make their stories heard. All films will be live streamed and shown to a live audience in San Diego, California (location TBD).

LET'S BANG POTS AND PANS
"After entering the recovery process after struggling with an eating disorder, I had never felt more alone and isolated. I knew other people struggled with eating disorders, but no one around me seemed to talk about it and diet cultured seemed to be everywhere. I reallystruggled trying to find a community that I could relate with and see myself in. Through the consumed film festival, I hope to aid people in telling their stories to break down the stigma and make it easier for those struggling with eating disorders to feel less alone"
