In addition to the fact that events play out on generally that very day across three sequential schedule years, yet every one of this amazingly tight suspenseful thrill ride’s 10 scenes takes a gander at things according to rotating characters’ points of view a la The Affair.

At the point when we initially meet Jeanette Turner (Chiara Aurelia), it’s 1993, and she’s a self-admitted “geeky 15-year-old” anticipating praising her birthday with her family and two dearest friends Mallory (Harley Quinn Smith) and Vince (Allius Barnes). As they partake in an evening at the shopping center, she fantasies about being pretty and well known.

Streak forward 365 days and she has a sweetheart – Jamie (Froy Gutierrez) – and is without a doubt part of the fashionable elite.
