Thirteen-year-old Marushka isn't fat; she's just a little overweight. And because she sees only photographs of beautiful fashion models and watches them on television - seeing how perfect they are and always hearing that the world needs only successful and attractive people - she begins to have an inferiority complex. This comes at an age when Marushka starts liking boys for more than just their minds. So she decides that she must become one of those beauties from a magazine. After all, she has an excellent role model in her best friend. What does it matter that she's already sliding down into hard anorexia and another friend has already been hospitalized with this diagnosis... The first round is waiting for Marushka: bulimia.

Let's say that the theme of the TV movie is a warning against the risks of anorexia, drug experiments, and emotional vulnerability in adolescence. However, the rest does not withstand a more critical view. Quite disturbing is the finding that the script was supported as one of the best via financial grants because I do not consider it satisfactory even. The second little star the film will receive from me as a reward for Vít Olmer because it is unquestionably the best film from his workshop in the last quarter-century. I'm afraid that Olmer has reached his current maximum with this film. But there is, of course, a bit of irony in it, because it is necessary to realize the level at which Vítek has been working in the past decades. Any other positives? The casting of the main female duo is decent, but the rest not so much, and it all feels more or less untrustworthy. Overall impression: 30%.
