A darkly comedic farce about a woman juggling multiple boyfriends whose birthday dinner plan spirals into chaos when an accidental death forces her to navigate deception and mayhem.

Claire Doste is about to reach the age of 35 and has everything one dreams of, such as having four boyfriends and a creative job in a publishing house specialising in crime novels. One day, she invites all of her boyfriends to her birthday dinner so that she can pick out her would-be fiancé. But an accident happens when Claire is getting the dinner ready.
