Slimtime


Slimtime was a short that stood out to me as a body positive short. It starts out with a man and his wife patiently waiting. When it's time for the wife to be seen, as soon as she leaves, her husband goes to explore the building. While waiting on her, he starts exploring, and he sees the procedures and the different things women go through to get their body the way they wanted it to be, which is slimmer. He travels from room to room and witnesses and sees all the machines and what they do.  When it's time for the final procedure the man patiently waits as a while line of girls cone out, and they all look pretty much identical, just with different hair. When the man's wife comes out, she looks exactly the same as she did when she first went in. The husband embraces her as if she was more beautiful before and it showed that he didn't care if she slim like the other girls, he liked her just as she was. I think this short described society and how people try to live up to magazine standards and it shows how you should be more comfortable with yourself.
