A young girl and her mother clash in the ‘Pretty Plus’ section of a clothing store.
PRETTY PLUS takes place on a late-August day, when 10-year-old Sloane and her mother, Ann, head out for back-to-school shopping. Ann insists on buying clothes from the ‘Pretty Plus’ section despite Sloane’s insistence on shopping for clothes that are too small. Their tension escalates when Ann’s childhood friend DeeDee and her “perfect” daughters arrive. An argument ensues where Sloane accuses Ann of calling her fat, a claim Ann denies but which deeply affects them both. Ann proposes a visit to their favorite ice cream stand as a peace offering, and Sloane’s happiness with her sweet treat signals a tentative resolution for this strained mother-daughter relationship.
