Val, a shy college freshman, attends a New Year’s Eve party hosted at a classmate’s house. The host, Jessica, gives Val a weed infused drink and Val tries to fit in by drinking beyond her experience level. Val meets G, a quiet and interesting loner, and they strike a deep conversation that triggers Val to have a bad trip. Val’s thoughts and perspective bring us on her emotional journey as she recalls the trauma she experienced during the waning year. G helps ground Val and take the first step in moving on and accepting the promise of a brand new year.
