This hilarious teen comedy tells the story of frumpy high-school senior Bianca (Mae Whitman) who has a rude awakening when she learns that her classmates secretly know her as the DUFF — designated ugly fat friend — to her prettier and more popular pals.

Desperate to reinvent herself, Bianca enlists the aid of Wesley (Robbie Amell), a charming jock. In order to save her senior year from becoming a complete disaster, Bianca must find the confidence to overthrow a judgmental student (Bella Thorne) and revolutionize the school's social order.

Smart and pretty Bianca Piper (Mae Whitman) is enjoying her senior year in high school with best friends Jess (Skyler Samuels) and Casey (Bianca A. Santos); that is until she realises she has been unknowingly dubbed The DUFF – Designated Ugly Fat Friend – of her group by the rest of the school.

Devastated, Bianca decides to revamp her social status and shake off her DUFF label.

With humour, an inspiring heroine and an incredibly important message, this is definitely a must-see movie.
