McGill Productions Announces New Documentary ‘Weight of Love’

Los Angeles, CA – Award-winning production company McGill Productions has confirmed the production of their latest feature documentary, ‘Weight of Love’. Set to release in 2026, this emotional and visually stunning film follows the journey of Elven Moshi, a man who once weighed 420 pounds and faced a life-threatening future. After making the bold decision to fight for his life, Moshi has lost over 230 pounds, defying the odds to reclaim his health, his family, and his future.

Directed by Harry McGill, with Keith Eccles as Associate Director & Director of Photography, and led by Executive Producer Shane Ogley, ‘Weight of Love’ will explore Moshi’s physical and emotional journey, the impact of obesity on families, and the societal challenges surrounding weight loss.

“This is more than a weight-loss story; it’s about survival,” says Shane Ogley, Executive Director & Creative Producer. “Moshi’s journey is raw, emotional, and deeply inspiring. Our team is committed to telling his story with authenticity, cinematic quality, and the heart it deserves. We believe this film will resonate with millions and save lives.”

The production team will be filming on location across Los Angeles, capturing Moshi’s daily life, training sessions, and a major skin-removal surgery, a crucial final step in his transformation. The documentary will also feature insights from leading health professionals, personal interviews, and never-before-seen footage of Moshi’s struggles and triumphs.

With obesity at crisis levels worldwide, ‘Weight of Love’ aims to challenge perceptions, break stigmas, and inspire those who feel trapped in their weight-loss battles.

McGill Productions has a reputation for cinematic storytelling, having worked with major brands and industry leaders. This project is their most ambitious documentary, with significant interest from major streaming platforms. The release is expected in 2026.
