Ronnie (Grace Glowicki) and Faye (Erin Carter) have been best friends forever. Ronnie’s brother — and Faye’s first love — Garrett has just died of cancer forcing both women to redefine their lives without him. For Ronnie, this means an epic drinking spree. For Faye, this means taking care of Ronnie. Trying to recover from their loss and grief, they decide to take off on a debaucherous adventure in the mountains in hopes of getting over the death of the man they both loved.
