The story follows Sonia, portrayed by Milioti, who is described as a neurotic and charming jingle writer who has always dreamed of a big, exciting life. After being surprised by a sudden marriage proposal and subsequent ultimatum from her easy-going boyfriend Chris, played by Soder, Sonia is forced to decide whether she will join the ranks of her married friends or take a leap to pursue her fantasies without him. Described as a whimsical romantic comedy that is both raunchy and gentle, the film explores the choices women face today while satirizing cultural expectations of gender and romance.
