The narrative unfolds on the day Andie returns to her childhood home, moving back in with her parents. Her mother, an assertive talk therapist, immediately urges her to map out her life plan, while her father, a once-renowned playwright, adopts a more carefree approach.

Despite the lack of circumstantial changes, Andie undergoes a transformative journey during these months, becoming more self-assured and accepting of her current place in life.

Six stories, five directors, one night! The film unfolds during Nuit Blanche, a massive annual all night, city wide, art festival. It follows six different interweaving stories -- an artist questioning her place in the world; a fired lawyer who dons a superhero mask; two high school friends reuniting in a way that might finally become more; a lost traveller constrained by a language barrier; an altered observer who lives to capture life through his lens; and a dedicated volunteer, more focused on others than the art. All are in a period of transition in their lives, and on this one night, they will all come together, connecting, and changing each others lives forever.
A tormented young woman haunted by a recurring dream is catapulted into a peculiar and deviant world where she is confronted by the duality of her existence.
