As a playwright enlists her boyfriend and best friend to stage a play for their neighbours, she experiences a frightening psychosis that dramatizes her struggles with mental health and the pains of performing womanhood for men.
Best friends since college, Lea (Kelsey Falconer) and Gabby (Chelsea Preston) enjoy a blissful cottage vacation. When Lea’s boyfriend (Tyson Coady) arrives, and the three prepare to put on a reimagined production of ‘Rapunzel’ for the neighbouring cottagers, tensions begin to rise between the group as they discuss artistry, privilege, and ideas of womanhood. As the group gears up for their performance, Lea gradually descends into a psychosis that exposes the struggles of being expected to live up to an outdated standard of womanhood.
