A movie that makes you love yourself just the way you are

Bright images, ethereal and captivating vision. Apart from cinematic delight for the senses, Timeless Beauty is also an occasion for deep reflection and a journey into oneself.

And at the end of the journey we will learn to love the person looking at us in the mirror. Without trying to turn back time and stay young. Without self-pity. Without comparing ourselves to others. Without suffering and obeying the stereotypes imposed for years by the fashion industry. Without fear of being rejected if we are not painfully thin, with perfect skin and dressed in clothes from the catwalks.

The film makes us love all our imperfections, because they define and distinguish us, it's because of them that we are authentic and truly beautiful. It is because of them that we can express our individuality.

Because who can say what beauty is? The perfect body and face or our personality, the way we live and laugh, the way we treat others, the things that we create, the way we fall in love... The Beauty is a subjective concept. And it's in the eyes of the beholder. So those who carry beauty in themselves will have the senses to see it in others.
