Ratings and reviews

A very powerful story and it is absolutely true. She doesn't care what's mother opinion perspective view in of chubby women are ugly and fat but not matter how the beautiful women if they struggles to lose weights but they proud of obesity overweight. It make me felt underestimate real women have curves, she speak truth about the chubby women have no shame themselves whenever they wants look be more beautiful than skinny. I'm very impressive that she told her so many times and mama shouldn't judging anyone who mostly deny against their women who had more fats. That was so fantastic!

I loved this movie as it tells women to love their bodies whether they are fat or skinny. This movie is about a girl growing into a woman and struggling between her family responsibilities and her own freedom while being told that she is "too fat" and "will never find a man".

Real great movie and it is true
