Pressure is building at work for her to greenlight a script, but Danica is increasingly losing touch with reality and control of her life, in direct response to her repression of grief. Danica has been estranged from her mother for years, triggered by her mother's transphobia against Jesse, Danica's trans nonbinary child. When her mother dies, Danica's lack of resolution with her precipitates a "cinematic dissociative disorder." Jesse, themself a budding storyteller using writing to try to understand family dynamics and history, eventually helps an initially resistant Danica learn that the only way to regain control of her own narrative is to let go of what she can't control.
