维里达是个摩登女孩，她在一家美容沙龙工作，沉迷社交媒体，也喜欢和朋友出去玩儿。但是她却要和一个父母安排的男人结婚。和她同龄的女孩一样，她必须遵照当地习俗，在婚前疯狂增重，因为在毛里塔尼亚旧俗标准下，丰腴的身体代表女性的美貌、魅力、财富和社会地位。婚礼将近，维里达还在催肥，但是她却开始质疑这所谓的标准，并试图找回她真正喜爱的人、生活方式，还有最重要的：她自己的身体。

Verida is a modern girl. She works in a beauty salon, is addicted to social media and hangs out with her friends. Still, she is engaged to a man chosen by her family. Like many girls her age, she is under pressure to gain a substantial amount of weight in a tradition called gavage, in order to reach the voluptuous body considered in Mauritania a sign of great beauty, charm, wealth and social status. The wedding is fast approaching and meal after meal Verida is starting to challenge everything she always thought was normal: her loved ones, her way of life, and not least, her own body.
