First Still and Synopsis Released for Lily Collins’ New Film, To the Bone
The first still from Lily Collins’ new film, To the Bone has been released. The still features Collins’ character, Ellen visiting her physician, played by Keanu Reeves.
Based on the film’s director, Marti Noxon’s experiences with anorexia, the film follows Ellen an unruly, 20-year-old anorexic girl who spent the better part of her teenage years being shepherded through various recovery programs, only to find herself several pounds lighter every time.
Determined to find a solution, her dysfunctional family agrees to send her to a group home for youths, which is led by a non-traditional doctor. Surprised by the unusual rules—and charmed by her fellow patients—Ellen has to discover for herself how to confront her addiction and attempt self-acceptance, in order to stand a chance against her demons.”
The film will hold its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this coming January.
