LOGLINE:

When her drug-addict mother dies, a young woman returns home, traveling through the underbelly of suburbia looking for a package her mother has left behind, reconnecting with her estranged sister along the way.

SYNOPSIS:

Home from backpacking through South East Asia for three years, thrill-seeker Emmie (ALYSSA LOBIT) returns to Los Angeles, after receiving a mysterious letter from Ricky, a companion of her recently-deceased drug-addict mother, Sunny (ALEXIS RHEE). She's looking for Ricky to retrieve what Sunny left for her and has a single clue in hand: The Morocco Motel, the dingy
den in the San Fernando Valley that Sunny last called home.

Tracking down a junkie is easier said than done, and along the way she gets help from
various people who knew her mother. Among them are Kim, the woman-child who
permanently lives at the dump Morocco, Jeremiah (JOHNNY WHITWORTH), the one guy who might make it out of this drug scene alive if only everything was different, and Leslie, a colorful man whose potential has long since faded.

The hunt is intensified when Emmie's sister Eve shows up. The two had pushed rather than drifted apart, due to their different approaches in dealing with their addict mother. Eve stayed behind and took care of Sunny until the dirty end. Meanwhile, Emmie took off for more exotic pastures, determined to live her own life.

United in the effort to find their mother’s package, the sisters maintain their stand-off, exposing old wounds, while also re-discovering their lost connection. After some run-ins with locals, the sisters finally recover the package. Set in the San Fernando Valley, against the dirty backdrop of seedy motels and forgotten flowers, the sisters come to peace with themselves, their mother, and each other about their different approaches to life.
