Margot dreams of leaving her small town of Rounet, Quebec, to pursue writing and is encouraged by Lucy, the postwoman, to keep at it-and to leave the toxic relationship holding her back.

After her breakup turns into a homicide, a strung-out young woman named Rookie escapes to a rundown motel with her accomplice Vee. There, they enlist the help of a mutual friend, Logan, an over-worked nurse, to help them in their escape plan. But convincing someone to help you get away with murder isn't as easy as it sounds. Tensions boil between the three best friends in their cramped motel room until Rookie finally gives in to her reality and tells Logan the truth of why she had to end her relationship with a hammer; her heart has stopped beating.
