Stigmatization of Obesity
We tend to perceive obesity as simply an issue of personal responsibility but don't see that it is a complex condition. This video is about persistent bias towards people who are over weight. Obesity is not just a problem of health, it is a problem of society. It's a problem of how society treats people who are obese. This video is more about the perspective of the life of obesity and what dangers that come because of the view society has towards being obese. People who are obese are the few people in society that is allowed to be stepped all over on. This film is how society got to the point where it is now when it comes to its own perception of obesity; from random strangers to people's own family and as time goes by, discrimination towards obesity grows and grows more negatively.
