    • Synopsis
    • The film is a portrait of an artist and a portrait of a deadly disease. During the last years, Lene Marie Fossen became recognized as a world class photographer. She has been suffering from severe anorexia since the age of ten. She had a unique photo-project; expose the shame and confront the disease. Her photo art is naked and honest.

      In October 2019, Lene Marie died of anorexia. She watched the finished film before she passed away. Together with her parents, she decided that the film should be launched on schedule, as it was important for Lene Marie that her story could mean something to others.

      SELF PORTRAIT is a film about the power of art. It raises important questions about what treatment one who suffers from severe anorexia needs. The audience gets to meet an unusual girl in a raw and poetic film.
