Puberty hits 12-year-old Ben, and suddenly his weight becomes a problem for him and others. Bullied by kids, with divorced parents unsure how to help, even the school nurse is concerned. Despite his love for food and budding chef talent, Ben takes drastic action, opting for a diet. Perhaps it can change things and even win Klara’s heart, the girl of his dreams. In the end, Ben discovers that true importance lies not in appearance but in how one feels. (Slovak Film Institute)
