Coming up next on Cinematherapy is a rather strange movie called "Ingrid Goes West," a dark comedy that tells the story of Ingrid Thorburn, who becomes fascinated with Taylor Sloane, a popular social media influencer.

Motivated by a series of unexpected events, Ingrid decides to relocate to Los Angeles to befriend Taylor and immerse herself in the glamorous and seemingly flawless world showcased on Taylor's Instagram feed. However, as Ingrid's fascination intensifies, the boundaries between reality and the carefully crafted online personas start to blur.

Following our main episode on parasocial relationships, we unpacked the theme a bit further, trying to answer questions like: at what point does admiration for someone popular become a problem? Are parasocial relationships 100% bad? Are there leading indicators for folks who build up parasocial ties?
