In a hopelessly small town somewhere in long and narrow Sweden, lives Maja, 18 years old. Her life's dream is to become an actress.
She wants to be the centre of attention, she wants everyone to see her, wants them to see the beautiful human being she is on the inside. Only it's a little hard to see. Heavily overweight, clumsy and socially inept, Maja struggles to realise her life's dream during her final term at high school.
Her road to success is lined with comedy and tragedy, as she is dogged by the prejudices of the people around her against someone with the "wrong" appearance. Yet she struggles on regardless, trying to find the strength and the self-esteem necessary to really take centre stage – on her own feet and on her own terms.

Quite an unusual comedy that definitely won't appeal to everyone. Maja is like a Swedish version of Bridget Jones and during moments of awkwardness, I felt incredibly awkward myself. It makes the movie really hard to watch. Anyway, it was running smoothly and even several scenes where they have conversations with actors weren't bad at all. I might compare Maja to a crazy and eccentric Miranda from England. It entertained, didn't it.
