Good morning, i am a fashion designer and this is a hard reality in the world. I face this problematic very closely because I see how models, male and female, worry for having a thin body, they believe that the solution to a better shape is by not eating or worst, EATING AND THEN VOMITING. Hope that this video is widely and openly broadcasted. Anorexia is a problem that I see every day on people I know. MANY THANKS TO PROFESSOR Wilmar Valencia to remind us the most beautiful and important... AS WE ARE!

I knew about the research behind this documentary and about the documentary itself conducted at the School of Communication at the University of Antioquia.

I also had the opportunity to personally meet Adrian and I consider her message is vital for young men and women not only in Colombia but in the world.

Congratulations to Wilmar Valencia for this excellent and important production.
