A lifetime of being told that she, as a fat person, can’t dance—and believing it—leads Glaswegian filmmaker Sarah Grant to re-enact iconic dance sequences from Friends, Pulp Fiction, Dirty Dancing and Britney Spears’s music videos, and expose the big fat lies that exclude bigger bodies from the dancefloor, as well as the cultural obsession with perfection and the deception that goes with it.
