Somewhere in the backwoods of northern Michigan, five teenagers come together for their final session at their childhood summer camp. It’s the summer of 1997, and over the last year, their former cabin mate, Louise, has died and been replaced in the cabin by Beth, the sheltered new girl. The other four campers - Allison, Erin, Jamie, and Casey - must navigate their grief alone. The teenagers spend 13 nights alone in the woods together, struggling to come to terms with queerness, family history, old friendships, and a summer of endings.

CONTENT WARNINGS: Discussions of grief, discussions of death of a parent and teenager, use of homophobic slur, nude images from a Playboy Magazine.
