Wer Schön Sein Will Muss Reisen plot

Tine Wittler embarks on a journey to Mauritania, where a different ideal of beauty prevails than in Germany. Lush and round shapes are preferred there. That is why many women are literally being fattened, taking dangerous drugs and trying to gain weight, without paying attention to their health. Tine Wittler asks herself what drives these women and on which traditions this approach is based. However, she cannot ignore the fact that there are also people who defy these traditions and have an alternative lifestyle.
