Details

When one of them is diagnosed with breast cancer, three childhood girlfriends gather for a sleepover in the Brooklyn of their youth. There they are confronted by their younger selves for an endless night of memories, secrets, and the meaning of coming home again.

A profound story of female friendship, the film explores religious identity and observance, social norms, and what we owe to ourselves, our families, and our communities.
