Ray wants the perfect body. But how far is too far?

When his training turns extreme, Ray is pulled into a dark gym culture that promises results at any cost. As his body changes, so does his mind. Watching from the side lines is his girlfriend Temi, a journalist who expresses concern but has her own secret agenda.

Hunger Pains is a gripping story about obsession, control, and what happens when self-improvement becomes self-destruction.
