Cal, a floundering actress, must reevaluate her priorities when she discovers that her childhood soulmate, Jacob, has a serious girlfriend, Emily.

As Cal gets swept up in her exciting new social life, she begins neglecting her best friend Bobby, who is becoming increasingly concerned about her rapidly changing focus. As Bobby and Cal’s friendship disintegrates, so does Cal’s sense of self. Meanwhile, her relationship with Em develops in unexpected and incendiary ways.
