“In the emotional depths of an eccentric therapy office, a college girl confronts her tangled desires, shattered illusions, and the societal pressures that define her worth as she unearths her raw experiences of love and intimacy.”

Anatomy of Longing was an idea I came up with after my first therapy session. As I sat there spilling my guts to this stranger, I realized that all the answers I needed to hear were already embedded within myself. Being a young woman trying to navigate the dating scene in this day and age is extremely emotionally charged and that is what this film shows, but with a camp twist of course.
