Susan Sarandon narrates this candid NOVA look at anorexia, bulimia and America's body obsession. The program introduces viewers to students, ballet dancers, fashion models and other young women who are seeking recovery or have conquered their fears and their disease. The program also shows how leading eating disorder specialists are making advances into the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.
