A Different Image

A poignant and empowering cinematic experience that delves into the complexities of body image and societal beauty standards through the eyes of a young Black woman, as she navigates a transformative journey towards self-acceptance and self-worth.

An African American woman living away from her family in Los Angeles yearns to be recognized for more than her physical attributes. In cultivating the friendship of a male office mate, she aspires to a relationship where romance is not a factor, seeking someone who can "see her as she is," rather than see only what he wants to see.
