A warm, character-driven comedy-drama about a young woman navigating identity, autonomy, and unexpected bonds with a child and her gay parents in suburban Illinois.

At the start of the summer, Bridget has an abortion just as she lands a much-needed job in affluent Evanston, Illinois — nannying a six-year old.
