Fly Girl
After being mistaken for a Millennial, a 42-year-old, Vietnamese American, recently-divorced single mom (size 12 or size 14 depending on carb intake) gets cast in a hip-hop dance troupe called the Fly Girls. But when she discovers she’s the chubbiest Gen-X single mom in a crew of thin, child-free twenty-somethings, she must overcome her insecurities to become the dancer she’s always wanted to be.
