A Stage for Size is a documentary telling the story of a few women whose journey in life is one of self-love, self-care and self-acceptance. In contemporary America, weight loss and weight gain are a common obsession; from the much talked about ‘obesity epidemic’ to the beautification industry, we all have at one point been dissatisfied with our weight. But for a small, yet active community in Los Angeles, fatness is a reason for love and pride. Together, they explore new and radical ways of looking at bodies and advocating for their (and everyone’s) right to define beauty and health for themselves. (Corina Maritescu, 22, USA)
