Dancehall dancer Evaleena Vuorenmaa gains 40 kg and is forced to face the judging gaze of her employers, society and even herself. Fat Dance is a short documentary about a woman who decides to take the power into her own hands and build her image the way she wants it to be. Is it really true that sexiness is not about size?
