But when a sports injury blows out her knee, the teen enters a documentary film contest in hopes of using the prize money for her education. Convinced that her overweight younger brother and mother use their struggles with weight as an excuse for everything wrong in their lives, Aly decides to go undercover wearing a fat suit and hidden camera to prove personality can outshine physical appearance. But this high schooler has no idea how harsh the world can be through a "fat" girl's eyes. She goes to a new school so she is not recognized and the kids are cruel.
