Overview
Olivia is a 27-year-old girl in an existential crisis who finds herself quickly becoming an adult and responsible to raise her twin girls alone and keep a slacker brother out of trouble. An accident opens her eyes to the fact that she has only one life and that, perhaps, it is worth trying to change it to realize some of the dreams that she has put aside.
