The Mirror Dance is written and produced by Kelly Holstrom, a young actor who has fully recovered from her binge-eating disorder over the course of her twenties. She believes that, while we have seen the more severe side of eating disorders in media such as Anorexia and Bulimia, we've yet to see a story that depicts the day-to-day life of someone who struggles with disordered eating, without necessarily killing themselves over it. In The Mirror Dance, we see the self-loathing, the self-doubt, and the trauma we experience in our thin-obsessed society. Kelly believes that even if just one person is able to see themselves in The Mirror Dance, then her project is an absolute success.
