April is a thoughtful yet sarcastic mother of two who tries her best to
be a caring, connected mom in a middle-class culture where motherhood
has become relentless. April rages at modern motherhood's impossible
pressures, her husband's Dad privilege, and her kids' incessant snack
requests. She wants to enjoy motherhood, but her idealist vision and
be a caring, connected mom in a middle-class culture where motherhood
has become relentless. April rages at modern motherhood's impossible
pressures, her husband's Dad privilege, and her kids' incessant snack
requests. She wants to enjoy motherhood, but her idealist vision and
lived experience are in constant conflict with one another. Is she
broken--or is motherhood?
Desperate for an answer, she seeks out a therapist, and lands with an
unexpected woman whose validation and wisdom gives April the clarity to
reclaim herself and even start designing clothes--her pre-motherhood
passion. But when the ever-elusive babysitter cancels last-minute, April
finds herself back at square one. She seeks guidance, but her therapist
is now dealing with her own crumbling marriage--and instead of
counseling April, she convinces her to speed off to Las Vegas with her
to help catch her husband cheating. With a little weed, alcohol, and
topless pool hopping, plus a male stripper and some much-needed
autonomy, the two find lost pieces of themselves that motherhood
swallowed up. But neither one is prepared for how tested--and
tempted--they will be, or for the life-altering choices their journey
will force them to make. Who is guiding whom anymore?
