Starving
Synopsis
We are obsessed with instant fixes to all of our problems. And the more we look to our phones to solve our every fleeting need, the less we are satiated. Whether we’re hungry, lonely, bored… whether we’re looking for validation, meaning, or love. Starving is a film about the mental health impact of the increasing isolation we all feel as our lives speed up.
