Toronto socialite Kimberly confronts the underpinnings of her addiction to oxycodone as well as her co-dependent and precarious relationship to her boyfriend, Derek. Before leaving on a business trip, Derek presents Kimberly with an ultimatum: to seek therapy for her troubled life or face the reality of a breakup. This prompts Kimberly to reassess her relationships and dynamics with various individuals, most importantly the relationship she has to herself. This episodic short movie draws the audience into a world of social insecurity, raw addiction, desire, therapy, vulnerability and pathos by design.
