Plot summary

Roma is an over the hill teenage star who struggles to maintain her status. She is the main provider for herself, and for her assistant and best friend Benedicte – a pursuit for money that has worn their friendship down. This Saturday a photo session for a feminist soap is taking place in Roma's home, a chance for a comeback. But Roma, who hardly leaves her bedroom these days, does not possess the same beauty power as she used to. Her her lack of interest and ambition, and extra kilos, is threatening to end the whole thing in chaos.
