Obesity Wars

If the world turned its back on your best friend for being fat, would you turn your back on him too?
At a time when the obesity problem is headlining at world health conventions, one small nation struggles to find solutions to the rising cost of healthcare. Campaigning on promises to clamp down on obesity, Shape Up - led by the charismatic William Tanner - claims a landslide victory. Honouring its campaign promises, laws targeting fat people are swiftly introduced. Government obesity squads - the GO squads - roam the streets in black vans with a license to enforce the laws by any means, whipping up violence towards fat people.
Teenagers Monty and Levi have been best friends since kindergarten. Levi is smart, funny and loyal - he's also obese. As the obesity laws become harsher and fat people increasingly disaffected, Monty begins to resent his friend, eventually disowning him. When Levi is brutally beaten by the neighbourhood bullies, Monty hardens himself to the injustice, blaming Levi for not doing more to lose weight.
But when Levi disappears, Monty realises that something more sinister is at play. Recruited to an underground anti-government organisation, Monty seizes the opportunity to fight back in the hopes of finding his friend and restoring balance in a society gone mad.
