Tired of feeling down about her weight, plus-sized 15-year-old Simi heads to her aunt Claudia’s house for Easter weekend. Claudia is a popular nutritionist who’s written best-selling health books, so for Simi, this could help inspire weight loss. But as Claudia’s dietary guidance verges on becoming overly militant and hostility pervades the holiday. What’s causing everyone to act so strangely and aggressively? The answers are even worse than Simi’s worst nightmares in this dread-filled, gut-punching shocker.
