Pudgy, 12-year-old Stella (Josephson) has a love-hate relationship with her older sister Katja (Deasismont) who is an elite ice skater. Stella also wants to be an ice skater but she can hardly stay on her feet on the rink. She’s also in love with Katja’s coach (Mehmet) and Katja is a secret anorectic.
It’s a harrowingly tender story, and
altogether too realistic in today’s world where anorexia and bulimia are
serious, sometimes deadly, and growing problems.
Young Josephson is outstanding as the
little sister overshadowed by her talented and anguished sister, torn between
love, envy, anguish and resentment.
