Hormones and Other Demons(2003)

Hormones and Other Demons is a coming-of-age drama that follows Eddi, a young person navigating identity and self-perception during a family holiday. When Eddi meets Lukas, a spark of connection emerges—but attraction and belonging become complicated when other family members also seek validation and desirability. The film explores what it truly means to be a woman, questioning whether identity is shaped by physical appearance, internal conviction, or the gaze of others. Tender and introspective, it examines how we define ourselves beyond surface-level judgments, weaving together themes of adolescence, family dynamics, and the search for authentic self-acceptance.
