EditClub Zero (2023)

Miss Novak bliver af rektor Dorset ansat som skolens nye ernæringslærer og får snart en håndfuld af sine elever i gymnasiealderen overbevist om, at de skal hellige sig ‘conscious eating’, bevidst spisning, som går ud på at træne sig selv til at spise mindre og dermed også sundere. Eleverne gør det af forskellige årsager – klima, dyrevelfærd, sundhed, karakterer – men de er alle snart besat af miss Novaks tanker og ideer og udsigten til at blive medlem af Club Zero, en eksklusiv klub for dem, der slet ikke spiser, men som mediterer og kan leve af tanker og ånd.

Miss Novak joins the staff of an elite international boarding school to teach a class in conscious eating. Her pupils are eager to make a difference in the world and quickly fall under her spell as she explains that eating less is healthy and good for the environment. Soon, the line between education and manipulation begins to blur, as Miss Novak encourages the students to increasingly reduce their food consumption. Truly believing that they feel better, the students and their teacher test new limits. The boarding school’s staff and the distracted parents are slow to notice what is happening and by the time they begin to realize, Club Zero has become a reality.
