Synopsis

It is the story of Celeste, a young poet and single mother, her comedically unsuccessful attempts to get her first book published and find her father, and her co-dependent friendship with her babysitter Stella, a middle-aged failed actress captivated by an online love affair.
Celeste and Stella find their lives cross over in more ways than one as each searches for a relationship that they believe will provide them with fulfilment in different ways.
