Tessa Byford

At an acting school in New York City, a prodigy devoted to The Method, his ambitious best friend chasing fame, and an aspiring playwright searching for her voice become entangled in an artistic collaboration while their revered mentor is forced to confront a painful question.

One year after her father's death, a high school senior discovers the epic screenplay for a terrible space opera — written by her dad. Equipped with just a VHS camera and pocket change, she decides to honor her late father and make this script a reality.

You Look Great is a darkly comedic, unflinching, intimate look into our addictions, obsessions, and self-consciousness. Our narrative follows Peter — an average guy struggling with his weight — over the course of 24 hours, offering a realistic insight into a strangely unrepresented story: that of a man fighting to hide his unhealthy relationship with his body. From home, to work, to simply walking down the street, we watch as Peter battles an all-consuming illness, one bent on isolating him from every part of his waking life.
