Her mother is not mentally well and has addiction issues. A series of small mishaps combine to cause horrific conditions inside their apartment over time.Layla is trying to hold it all together.

Her one friend's mom wants to help but Layla knows if she lets her get too close her carefully balanced world will come tumbling down. This is the story of a young girl forced to grow up too fast.
