Deformed

Directed by Augusto Suárez Vincenty, Puerto Rico, 2024

Logline: A young man suffers from a strange condition… His body is constantly deforming. His only relief? Compulsive eating.

Synopsis: Over the course of a single day, a young man battles a mysterious condition that causes grotesque physical deformations throughout his body. Convinced that eating is the only way to restore himself, he becomes trapped in a desperate cycle of binge eating and temporary relief. As the transformations intensify, so do his fear, shame, and isolation. Eventually overwhelmed, he collapses under the weight of what he believes he has become. When his girlfriend finds him, she sees no monster—only a man in pain. Her compassion forces him to confront a devastating truth: his struggle may be psychological rather than physical.

Runtime: 11m 51s

When a gifted young musician makes the difficult decision to leave his family to pursue a promising career in New York, he sees it as nothing more than a temporary separation.
