A dark comedy about ambition, intimacy, and the fragile boundaries between who we are and what we’re paid to be.
“If I’m an expert in the lab, then I am a fucking savant at getting men to want me. It makes my science career look like a lemonade stand of a side quest.”
Eloise is a PhD candidate in experimental medicine & oncology at NYU. She’s also a high-end escort.
When she falls in love with a handsome stranger and uncovers fabricated data at her biotech startup, the lives she’s carefully kept separate begin to unravel.
