Based on Sarai Walker's 2015 best-selling, critically acclaimed novel of the same name, the extraordinarily timed new series unveils one woman's journey to self-awakening while exploring a multitude of issues faced by women today -- including patriarchy, misogyny, rape culture and unrealistic beauty standards.

Filmed on location in New York City, the 10-episode series "Dietland" follows Plum Kettle, ghost-writer for the editor of one of New York's hottest fashion magazines, as she struggles with self-image and sets out on a wildly complicated road to self-acceptance. At the same time, everyone is buzzing over news reports about men, accused of sexual abuse and assault, who are disappearing and meeting untimely, violent deaths.
