In this heartfelt dramedy from Paul Shoulberg, Lex Cordova (Roberta Colindrez) makes an honest living as a counselor for the terminally ill alongside her father, Gary (John Ortiz). Endowed with a raw talent and affinity for death and the dying, Lex's gift hasn't done much for her personal life, which is a mess. Enter free-spirited Valerie (Judith Light, Transparent), who serves as the lit fuse that ignites Lex's long overdue transformation out of her rut. Both carrying a decidedly distorted outlook on living and dying, Valerie's growing influence on Lex makes the young woman question her life's direction...or more accurately, lack of one. Carson Meyer and Zachary Spicer co-star in this darkly funny and charming picture as a terminal patient and a psychic medium, respectively.
