A near college graduate, Danielle, rushes to meet her neurotic parents at a family shiva. Upon arrival, she is accosted by various relatives about her appearance and lack of post-graduate plans, while her confident ex-girlfriend, Maya, is applauded by everyone for getting into law school.

Danielle's day takes an unexpected turn when her sugar daddy, Max, arrives at the shiva with his accomplished wife, Kim, and crying baby. As the day unfolds, Danielle struggles to keep up different versions of herself, fend off pressures from her family and confront her insecurities without completely losing it.

Writer/Director Emma Seligman's sharp-witted and assured debut feature is a master class in awkward comedy reminiscent of BROAD CITY. The ensemble cast play off of one another like a well-oiled machine, led by Rachel Sennott, who delivers a star-making performance as Danielle.
