The movie is set in Nis, Serbia. A girl from Pittsburgh called Sophia, who lives and works as a designer in an international construction company in Nis, decides to change her bad habits and her life for the better, after hearing an advertisement on the radio and applying for a huge international casting for top models. Until the day of the casting, Sophia is working on herself and is making changes in her life that she never imagined she would. However, after the casting and the CEO Marc’s decision, as well as the decision of his assistant Jenny and the whole ‘Markofit’ team, Sophia is faced with true disappointment and goes back to her old ways.

An overweight boy who was a bullied at school grew up to become a beloved comedian, folk artist Jope Ruonansuu. He was a versatile entertainer, but above all an impressionist, able to imitate more than 150 characters from the ruling class. Jope's journey was a natural extension of the post-war "Rillumarei" -culture. He broke through when the monoculturalism was at its most vibrant and grew in popularity as it began to crumble. With weight loss surgery, Jope sought a healthier life, but also to shed the extra pounds and childhood traumas. After the surgery, he was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer, but continued to fight, developing a number of different projects, including an anti-bullying campaign together with the President of Finland, Sauli Niinistö. The project was to culminate in a joint visit to Syväkangas school, in Jope's home town of Kemi. Jope passed away before then, but Niinistö kept his promise.
