Netflix continue to produce a massive array of original films by the month it seems and the latest to be added to the ongoing catalogue is Marti Noxon’s feature film debut, To The Bone.

Featuring what is being described as a ‘career-making’ role for leading star Lily Collins, the film itself focuses on a young anorexic girl who always seems to find herself worse off after taking new advice in how to cope with her illness. Moving on to a new home in order to finally put herself on the right path, a particulalry unconventional new method may be the one that saves her.

The film also stars Keanu Reeves, Lili Taylor and Carrie Preston. You can read the full synopsis below and check out the first image from the movie above.

Ellen is an unruly, 20-year-old anorexic girl who spent the better part of her teenage years being shepherded through various recovery programs, only to find herself several pounds lighter every time. Determined to find a solution, her dysfunctional family agrees to send her to a group home for youths, which is led by a non-traditional doctor. Surprised by the unusual rules—and charmed by her fellow patients—Ellen has to discover for herself how to confront her addiction and attempt self-acceptance, in order to stand a chance against her demons.

To The Bone is released on Netflix on 14th July.
