Sharing the Secret - Part 1

This made for TV movie can be viewed in 10 parts on youtube. Each part is approximately 9 minutes. I thought it was interesting and would appeal to high school students. It could be viewed over several class periods. Here is a synopsis:
Sharing the Secret [TV] (from IMDb) By rights, child psychologist Dr. Nina Moss should be pleased and proud that her daughter Beth is a slim, eternally upbeat overachiever. But Nina suspects that all is not well with Beth–and she’s right. Desperate to be accepted by her family and friends, and determined to be fully in control of her own destiny, Beth has become bulimic, “binging” and “purging” whenever things threaten to get out of hand in her life–or whenever she gains a single pound beyond her “ideal” weight. The winner of a 2001 Peabody Award.
