Coming-of-age dramedy starring Zoe Kazan (Ruby Sparks), Jake Johnson (New Girl) and Ron Livingston (Office Space). Kazan plays identical twins Laurel and Audrey. When Audrey dies in a car crash, Laurel assumes her more outgoing sister's identity. The feature debut from writer/director Jenée LaMarque.
"Audrey has all of the qualities that her identical twin sister Laurel wishes she possessed: confidence, style, independence. Alternately, Laurel, sweet but painfully awkward, feels stuck in her life, still living at home, coddling their father and obsessed with the boy next door, for whom she used to babysit. When the sisters reunite for their birthday, tragedy strikes and a fateful mix-up leaves Laurel faced with an opportunity to reinvent herself - and her life - as her beloved sibling...
"As Laurel begins to slip into the life she has always wanted but never thought was possible, she must decide between continuing her life as Audrey and revealing herself as the perfect fraud." (Tribeca Film Festival)
