Cooma-based online store, Birdsnest, is hosting two screenings of the doco at the Palace Electric Cinema in New Acton on August 18, one at 6pm and the other at 8.30pm. Taryn will conduct a Q and A session after each screening.
Tickets cost $40 and include champagne and nibbles beforehand and a choc top and popcorn during the screening.
Taryn, a mum of three and founder of the Body Image Movement, cancelled planned plastic surgery meant to "improve" her post-baby body when she had an epiphany that she should love the body she had. Not least to set a good example to her daughter, Mikaela.
Birdsnest, which is about celebrating women in all their forms, will also hold a special function the night before with Taryn at its Cooma headquarters. We hear a "no lights, no lycra" session may be involved!
