โœฆ Synopsis


Girlfriends are the best medicine.

Franny, Jude, and Anna go on their annual lake camp-out in Northern California to eat and drink, skinny dip and whoop into the night when the subject turns to death. What do you want to do before you die? What will you wear to your funeral? Who will do your makeup?

It gets darker back home as Jude fears she's developing her mother's dementia and starts to stash pills, research suicide and withdraw from her friends. Before the next camping trip each woman's life is turned upside down, along with her faith in the future and her friends in a year of suspicions, infidelity, the latest in California dying styles, the politics of assisted suicide along with debates on why breasts are not boobs and what wine to have with your last meal. Because, what better way to deal with the absurdity and certainty of mortality than to cry and laugh with your best friends?
