Anna lays in the forest naked and talks about the joy being naked brings her ever since her childhood. Anna talks about how the disgust of a school friend's father overwhelmed her. Anna remembers that she was never visible in her school's dance recitals, and she dances. Anna is big and she recapitulates the countless times where the wrongness of her body was mirrored to her. Anna is a hybrid figure, created from the narrations of several women, embodied by a performance artist. The result is a reconstruction of a formative social space of experience, and at the same time a counter-image of shame.
