The(ir) Blurb...

After her first semester of college at Berkeley, Natalie drives home to LA with her childhood friend, Joanne, for Chinese New Year. Navigating the festivities that were once inviting but now tinged with a foreign animosity, Natalie must juggle between the growing attraction shared herself and Joanne, and the prying eyes of those she once called home.
