Women Who Eat

About the Project

“The first sin was a woman who ate.” 

In this irreverent DARK COMEDY, 6 hysterical women are stranded when their Eating Disorder Recovery Center on a remote island loses power during a generational storm.

The inhabitants are forced to grapple with whether or not they want to survive, and if they can accept the women they become. The island becomes a war zone, as the women fight tooth-and-nail to become “Top Dog.” As they struggle for power and control, their only choice is to eat. There is no other option. 

It’s a dog-eat-dog world, and these are some hungry bitches…
