Synopsis


"What is gonna happen, when we can't take it anymore?"


Stumbling down the street drunk at 11.30am Effie is the kind of girl you avoid making eye contact with.


You think you know her, but maybe you don't know the half of it.


Effie's life is a mess of drink, drugs and drama every night, and a hangover worse than death the next day - till one night gives her the chance to be something more.
