Dreaming of escape from the bleakness of their industrial Lithuanian hometown, two thirteen-year-olds, Marija and Kristina, form a unique bond at a local modeling school. But the promise of a better life pushes girls to violate their bodies in increasingly extreme ways.
"Toxic is a Lithuanian teen drama about two teenage girls who, as a way to escape their complicated reality in an industrial town, join a local modeling school. What they thought would be an escape turns out to be a place where they learn to abuse their bodies in increasingly extreme and dangerous ways. While it doesn't delve deeply into the protagonists' inner lives, this is a very illustrative film about poverty, marginalization, and abuse, as well as how our culture has normalized certain beauty standards and the exploitation of female bodies."
