The Girl With Two Heads

The Girl With Two Heads(2018)

Anne films herself on her mobile phone as she inspects her physique in the mirror, while her mother, Céline, also studies her body in the mirror. Both have contrasting ideas as to what the ideal female body type should be. Conflict emerges between mother, daughter and her mother’s boyfriend when it is revealed that Anne herself uploaded to the Internet a video of herself training topless at the fight club - raising issues of how the public & the Internet perceives women and shapes female self-perception and other women in turn.

Céline comes to the gym to watch Anne fight in an attempt to better understand her daughter. Anne and the people with whom she trains discuss their own journeys of how they came to understand their own bodies and self-perception.
