"I'm excited to share this film with you in the hopes of beginning a conversation. Beginning a conversation about the ways that social codes and prejudices about bodies shape our individual lives and our culture.
As a mental health practitioner in private practice many of my conversations/sessions circle around the topics addressed in this film. My hope is to share this resource with the wider community. This film is for anyone that has struggled with negative media messages about body shape and size, experienced or witnessed anti-fat discrimination, or anyone with a body!"
Acclaimed director Jeanie Finlay charts the rise of Aubrey Gordon . Shot over six years we see Aubrey go from anonymous blogger Yrfatfriend to NYTimes best seller and beloved podcaster with an audience of millions.
