A lonely 423-pound boy everyone calls "Butter" is about to make history.

He's going to eat himself to death live on the Internet - and everyone will watch.

When he makes this announcement online, he expects pity, insults, or possibly sheer indifference.

Instead, his classmates become morbid cheerleaders for his deadly plan.

But as their dark encouragement grows, a few voices begin to offer genuine support and Butter starts to have doubts.

His suicidal threat brought his newfound popularity--and a taste of what life could hold for him--but can he live with the fallout if he decides not to go through with his plan?

Emotionally raw and darkly humourous, this is an all-consuming look at one teen's battle with himself.
