When a high-schooler is plucked from her dreary town and set loose in the world of London modeling; this fairy-tale transformation risks destroying not only her; but everyone in her orbit. A biting look at the privation and resentment lurking behind any real-life Cinderella story; Fit is at once a classic work of kitchen-sink realism as well as an uncanny anatomy of the unforgiving rules that govern our stratified world.
