Excess

A “Maitland Films” FILM
WRITTEN BY Jess Maitland

“My nose is too big.”
“I wish I had lighter hair.”
“Why don’t I have longer legs?”
Everyone feels they’re flawed. This girl is no different.

After trying and being struck down time and time again for roles, an aspiring actress decides the fault lies with her appearance – her body. Starting small, she begins to take more and more drastic measures to achieve her idea of an “ideal appearance”. Despite her friends and family’s warnings, misgivings and discouragement, she continues down a path towards physical and mental instability, not realising that she has already lost control.
