Your Fat Friend (15)

Your Fat Friend  (15)

★★★✭ This charming documentary about the rise of fat activist Aubrey Gordon, from anonymous blogger and viral sensation to best selling author is fascinating. ~ ManchesterTheatres.com

---

A film about fatness, family, the complexities of change and the messy feelings we hold about our bodies. 

Acclaimed director Jeanie Finlay charts the rise of Aubrey Gordon. Shot over six years we see Aubrey go from anonymous blogger Yrfatfriend to New York Times best seller and beloved podcaster with an audience of millions.  

Her aim? A paradigm shift in the way that we view fat people and the fat on our own bodies. The world may be listening, but her family have a way to go in understanding her work.

★★★★ A heartfelt, intimate portrait that's never cloying, Jeanie Finlay profiles writer and activist Aubrey Gordon, whose eponymous blog unexpectedly led her to become an online sensation. ~ Little White Lies.

★★★★ Though the cognitive dissonance of watching scenes of pre-public Gordon discussing her reluctance to let go of her anonymity with a documentary filmmaker is never quite acknowledged, the film itself is fascinating and compelling viewing. ~ The Scotsman.

★★★★ A simple but effective study of a vital activist voice, this documentary is a powerful force for change. This film will move people. And it’s about damn time. ~ Empire.
