Fat Girls Float – The Movie

You may remember when I first wrote about my friend Kira’s documentary. The support the film has received from this community since that post on September 30th has been very inspiring. Kira is very close to reaching her goal and it is possible to raise even more. Here is the latest update from Kira on what needs to happen for her to reach her fundraising goal for this next phase in production.

FAT GIRLS FLOAT is the provocative, engaging and moving new documentary from 300 pound filmmaker Kira Nerusskaya, who shares her message of perseverance and passion with the world.

The film showcases intimate interviews with fat women from around the world; they discuss size discrimination, political activism, fat and size acceptance, and their experiences as fat women under attack in a thin-centric world.

Please be a part of making this film by pledging HERE. Any donation in any amount is appreciated. We only have until December 13th to raise the rest of the funds we need for this step of post production, so please help us spread the word about this amazing project by tweeting, reposting this paragraph in your blog every Wednesday or on your site and telling your friends.

Join us this Sunday, 11/15/09 at 7:00 p.m. EST for a “meet the film maker” conference call and Fat Acceptance discussion. Check out the Fat Acceptance Salon for more details.

DONATE NOW to see Kira’s movie make Fat Acceptance history.

As one of the people interviewed in the film as well as being in the trailer I will most definitely be on the Sunday call. We are also hoping to have some of the celebrities who are supporting the film record messages that we will play for you during the call and perhaps on future calls.

Please consider a making a donation. Even one dollar brings us closer to making history.
