A depressed 20-something year old tries to win over the love of her straight, taken best friend and ends up losing herself in the process.

SYNOPSIS:

23-year-old Daisy is bored with her office job, struggles with her life choices and mental health and retreats to mostly smoke her problems away instead of actually dealing with them. Plus, she is in love with her best friend Mona, who has a boyfriend and is straight – at least that’s what Daisy knows. One day, while hanging out in the park, Daisy gives it a shot and kisses Mona, who lets it happen, but seems rather passive, not wanting to talk about the kiss afterwards.

While Daisy meets up with her drug dealer, Mona organizes a karaoke night at the café, where she works. Daisy ends up coming by during karaoke night and their awkward feelings resolve in a fun night, ending in a very drunk Daisy. Mona helps Daisy get home safe, dodging another attempt at a kiss. Still, the undeniable chemistry between the two prevails. After Mona gets mad at Daisy for not showing up to work, they get in a bit of a fight. Mona tries to cheer Daisy up by breaking and entering an old, abandoned home with her that used to mean a lot to Daisy and will be torn down the day after. They get closer and end up giving into their feelings, having sex. Mona feels guilty for cheating on her boyfriend, while Daisy gets her hopes up. But an even bigger down follows the high or their time spent together: Daisy’s family comes to visit for the anniversary of her father’s death. Her relationship with her mother is rocky, to say the least and they end up fighting during her family’s visit. Right as her mother and brother leave again, Daisy comes out to her mother as gay, but is left alone in the driveway for an answer.

Mona’s boyfriend gets a promotion and the two celebrate, while Daisy seems to be drowning in her misery. It only gets worse when Daisy’s dealer, Richie, who she seems to have befriended before, shows up at her workplace, claiming to be a new employee. Daisy struggles with facing her problems and ends up turning on Richie, destroying their new-found friendship.

When Mona’s boyfriend Sam sends a screenplay of Mona, who aspires to be a writer but is too shy to show her work to anyone, to an agent, without asking Mona for permission, the two get in a fight. Sam reveals his true intentions: he wants to move away to a bigger city and sees L.A. as a chance for the both of them. Mona is still mad at him for the script-thing and spends the night at Daisy’s place. There, Mona discovers that Daisy has a stash of

benzodiazepine lying around and gets mad at her for taking them. They end up fighting as well, seemingly putting an end to their friendship. Daisy’s downward spiral continues, and she loses her job at the office. She leaves Richie an apology-note on her way home. The misery climaxes in her taking way too many pills – a suicide attempt. Lucky for her, Richie, who read the apology-note and came by to accept it, finds her and calls an ambulance.

Mona is informed of the suicide attempt and rushes to the hospital, confronting Daisy about it. She also tells her that she and her boyfriend are moving away to L.A. and invites her to come over and say goodbye. When the day of moving arrives, Daisy doesn’t show up. She chooses to give happiness another chance and get her life together, showing up at an art gallery of an acquaintance, where she eventually finds a new job. Mona and Sam move.

4 years later, Mona and Sam are in an unhappy, stagnant relationship. Mona decides to fly home to pay her parents a visit. She has just finished writing a screenplay and wants to show it to a special someone. Back home, Mona stops by Daisy’s apartment, but another woman, who seems to be Daisy’s new girlfriend, opens the door. Mona asks the woman to give Daisy the screenplay and leaves. In the last scene, Mona hangs around in the café where she used to work, when Daisy turns up out of the blue, smiling.
