Meals as Chains

Arthur weighs 185 kilos and grows up in an environment where abundance is central. His parents serve him enormous meals day after day, which he unsuspectingly accepts as love and care. Gradually, his body changes: his stomach grows heavier, his movements slower, his bed too small to carry him. One evening, as he stares at the ceiling, he realizes this may never have been a coincidence. In the mirror, he no longer sees an ordinary boy, but a body shaped and enlarged by others. The discovery that his parents might want him this way keeps him trapped in a suffocating truth.
