Losing: A Conversation with the Parents

[BE THE FIRST TO RATE THIS MOVIE]
Calorie Rating: 25
Released: 1977-02-13
Running Time: 18 Minutes


Treating the problem of anorexia nervosa from the parents' perspective, Rosler presents a mother and father speaking about the tragedy of their daughter's death as a result of dieting. The conversation turns toward the irony of self-starvation in a land of plenty and toward the international politics of food, where food aid is used as a negotiating tool. Confronting a serious issue, Rosler simultaneously sets into play the confessional form and the ghoulish staginess of talk show dramatics.
