Synopsis

It's 2010. The era of the Amaro and Valencia Instagram filters. #sobriety #tattoos Annabelle has just been kicked out of rehab for a careless mistake. She is bright, young, and has the whole world in front of her...but drinking always messes it up. Striving to be happy and a productive member of society, she does all the right things. Joins AA, gets a sponsor, and moves into a halfway house. As you would have it, the disappointments of life get in the way and Annabelle is faced with a defining decision. The film shows the reality of addiction. It tries to explain something that cannot be explained. There is not one reason someone is an addict or relapses. But at the core of it, I believe we are all searching for the same thing: connection.
