One night, Andie, figurehead of a four friends group, plans out her death in front of all her relatives. Through a broken monologue, Andie reveals her deep thoughts about each person she has harmed. This staging destabilizes the group and questions the links previously made. While each member of the gang tries to regain control of the group, both emotionally and physically, a fifth person interferes from the outside and comes to stir up chaos.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film stages suicide as theatrical spectacle, forcing viewers to confront how we consume others' pain as entertainment. Bordeleau's background in experimental theater bleeds through every locked-room confrontation.
Catherine Brunet reportedly performed the central monologue in a single 28-minute take, with the other actors receiving no script for the reactions — their shock is largely genuine. The crew called it 'the most uncomfortable day on a Quebec set in 2018.'
