Secrets of the diet camp in a virtual society where one’s appearance determines
the social class!

synopsis

Inspection

One day, when Ariha goes shopping for shoes with her mother Dara, a man gets caught in an inspection on the street. The man flees but soon gets arrested by White Rescues. White Rescues are police officers of the new regime who arrest people whose BMI exceeds a standard level. In this city, being fat is considered a crime and one’s social class is determined by appearance. As soon as one turns into 18, their class is determined through an exam by the Citizen Committee. Therefore, students whose social class is about to be determined become extremely sensitive and nervous.


Camp

A person arrested at the inspection is being forced to enter the diet camp. This camp is quite suspicious. Once you enter, you’re separated from society, and even your family can’t communicate with you anymore. This means no one can tell whether you’re alive or not. Those who advertises themselves that they got a perfect body and a new life after dischargement from the camp seem very suspicious. Kata, Ariha’s boyfriend, happens to get caught in the inspection and is about to be sent to the camp.


Seeds

Someone secretly put vegetable seeds in Ariha’s bag. Ariha gets scared because it’s prohibited to eat vegetables in the city. There is a rumor that a secret antiestablishment
organization named “Seed-Sharing People” is operating covertly. It is said that the organization instigates people to eat vegetables and oppose forcible camp entrance. The organization is a dangerous entity that revolts against the government.


Secret

Ariha searches the diet camp where Kata has been taken. She meets Mimi, a person
discharged from the camp, and finds out suspicious points about the camp. Ariha
then steals camp information at the office of Nanya, principal of the Citizen Committee.
Then she breaks into Nanya’s house and finds a secret hiding place. It’s obvious that
the camp is not simply a diet camp, as the authorities claim. Then, what in the world do they do to the fat people at the camp? The secret that is about to be revealed seems shocking.
