On her sixteenth birthday, shy perfectionist Olivia watches her meticulously planned party collapse in real time as friends cancel one by one. But when two fiercely loyal guests refuse to let the night die, disappointment gives way to chaos, comedy, and raw teenage honesty. As expectations unravel and masks come off, what begins as a social disaster transforms into a wildly funny, deeply relatable coming-of-age story about identity, resilience, and the friends who show up when it actually counts.
