Picture the scene, you are a young scottish lad about half the size of all the others your age. You are bullied and have no way of fixing your size. But then, out of nowhere you find a flyer for a fitness trainer on paper, what do you do? Well YOU would propably forget it and accept your lot. But not wee Geordie, he puts everything into the program but his best friend, Joan becomes distant. As the film progresses Geordie finds out that it isn't all easy if you put all the effort into muscle, love tends to get in the way and for poor wee Geordie, there isn't much release from his decisions, even as he goes into the olympics. "Geordie" asks one of the most important questions, what is more important, muscle or love? The film delivers comedy and adventure in spoonfulls, a lovely watch on a quiet Sunday afternoon
