Obeso Mórbido

2026, Portuguese. Directed by Diego Bauer.

In this semi-autobiographical drama, filmmaker Diego Bauer plays a fictionalized version of himself confronting his past and present during a drastic weight-loss journey. As his body changes, he revisits memories of childhood, family, and social stigma, while questioning masculinity, desire, and belonging. Alongside this process, he reflects on his bisexuality and attraction to male and female bodies, exposing confusion, vulnerability, and self-acceptance. Blending fiction and confession, the film follows his attempt to reconcile who he was with who he is becoming in a society obsessed with norms and appearances.
