Amy has had a rough life, having been raised by a neglectful, drug-addicted single mother. David was raised in a more conventional family, but his lack of motivation has driven his father crazy. When Amy and David meet, it seems they both find what they are looking for. However, when Amy gets pregnant, both characters go through personal, surreal, and existential crises in making choices.
