Syd (Radha Mitchell) is an assistant editor at Frame magazine. She lives with her boyfriend James (Gabriel Mann). There's a leak from their ceiling. She goes upstairs to her neighbor Lucy Berliner (Ally Sheedy) who is doing drugs with her girlfriend Greta (Patricia Clarkson) and others. Lucy is a photographer and Syd proposes to use her work. Ten years ago, Lucy had a mental breakdown. As soon as the magazine realizes who Lucy is, they become eager to use her but she insists on Syd as her editor. Greta falls deeper into drugs and Syd falls for Lucy.
Ally Sheedy makes a great reintroduction. For many who hasn't seen her since her Brat Pack days, her gaunt look and her depths are both shocking. Along with Radha and Patricia Clarkson, the three ladies give outstanding performances of mature and complex characters. The connection between Radha and Ally Sheedy is both delicate and powerful.
