Growing Up Fat And Albanian
Meet Ella, a headstrong young American woman who defies everything-- her traditional Albanian upbringing; her strict family; her nemesis, the formidable Aunt Shirley, to risk it all for true love. A love story about growing up FAT & Albanian. Your family or your heart? YOU decide. But choose wisely. And remember -love, luck, fate, no matter what life throws you, your family always has your back. If they don't stab you first.
A sharp, irreverent comedy about identity, family loyalty, and carving your own path. Ella's story is relatable and rebellious—perfect for anyone who's felt caught between who they are and who their family expects them to be.
