With a collage of girls' voices, This Is My Body presents some teenage girls brave enough to share their experiences and secrets about what it means to be a girl at this time of their lives. While taking a course in documentary video production, this group from a Montreal high school turned the camera on themselves and each other to explore issues of body image, eating disorders, cutting, sexuality, friendship and parenting. Speaking in their own words, these girls offer a message of urgency, hope, and inspiration to us all: You are not alone. You can get through this. You have the strength. You can make a change. You have the power.
