Five stories dealing with overweight merge at a group therapy session. A place where the main characters don’t expect to loose weight, necessarily, but hope to find out what led them to be overweight and the reasons why they don’t feel happy with their bodies. As it turns out, weight is the least of their problems and so are their bodies. They will end up learning to face their fears, desires, obsessions, needs, dreams, problems that haunt them, family, partners, love, sex, mistakes, guilt…

FATS is not a film about fat people, it’s a film about people in general, about you and me; about all of us.
