Život k sežrání

reż. Kristina Dufková
2024 / 80’

12-year-old Ben sings in a rock band. He’s brimming with energy and loves cooking. But revolution is brewing. He falls in love with his classmate and decides to go on a diet.

The kitchen is Ben’s natural habitat. For someone like him, dieting is not an easy choice. Still, Ben decides to take up the challenge – not only because the school nurse has told him to do so. The boy wants to start a new chapter in his life. He can’t stand his nasty PE teacher’s jibes and he wants to impress his first crush Klara. But keeping a diet is not a piece of cake. The snack vending machine in the school corridor stares at him and every visit at his granny’s means a huge feast. This puppet animation with a catchy score is more than just a story about losing weight. The film shows that it’s a good idea to start liking yourself – that’s such a weight off your mind!
