After a tragic encounter at a college party, Sarah O' Conner finds herself desperate and alone. Facing an unplanned pregnancy, she is caught between the trauma that haunts her and the conviction that calls her. Let down by family and isolated from friends, her desperation turns deadly as she comes face to face with the end of life as she knows it. Now she must make the final sacrifice. |
This Is My Body is a silent film about a college girl’s passion and sacrifice in the face of dire circumstances. The title cards of the film follow the thematic progression of frivolity to extreme gravity. The film is meant for multiple viewings due to the layers of meaning inherent in its juxtaposing and symbolic images. This Is My Body is a reflection on the nature of body image, the existentialist notion of choice and consequences, the philosophical problem of evil, and the difficulty and beauty of embracing sacrifice in the most harrowing of circumstances. |
