A warm, music-soaked romantic comedy set in Montreal's indie rock scene, balancing professional ambition with personal entanglement across a nostalgic summer.

Grace Pine, a 24-year-old music critic, moves to Montreal to write a book on Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill, but her plans are complicated when she becomes romantically involved with two members of an indie band she is covering and decides to become their publicist.
