Ava has her life mapped out with clear goals and solid plans. Gen does not. Their friendship has survived high school through countless late night conversations, dramatic moments, and mutual support through every crisis. Now they face their biggest test yet: real adult life after graduation. Living over a thousand miles apart, they rely on phone calls to help each other through new challenges. Ava needs advice about relationships and questionable roommates. Gen wrestles with internship decisions and whether adopting a feral cat makes sense. Their conversations swing between hilarious observations and emotional confessions as they try to figure out where they belong in the world. But as both friends start changing in unexpected ways, the distance between them feels larger than just geography. Their bond faces the ultimate question of whether even the strongest friendship can survive when two people grow in different directions.
