A gritty, intimate portrait of female friendship fractured by betrayal and survival in a poverty-stricken Los Angeles neighborhood where systemic violence and personal tragedy converge.

Two Indigenous Latina bestfriends, Mousie and Sad Girl live in a contemporary Los Angeles poor Indigenous Hispanic American neighborhood. But when Sad Girl becomes pregnant by Mousie's boyfriend, a drug dealer named Ernesto, the two become bitter enemies. While their dispute escalates towards violence, the violence of the world around them soon also impacts their lives.
