Description
Franny's life has changed dramatically since her mom took over cleaning jobs to support their family. Now that they've moved into an apartment above a laundromat, Franny is looking forward to a more stable future. However, when her mom gets injured in a car accident, their fragile situation begins to unravel. With her mom unable to work, Franny must find a way to keep the bills paid and her family safe. She turns to an unlikely solution: blackmailing a school rival to help her clean houses. But as she navigates this difficult situation, Franny realizes that addiction is a problem she can't solve on her own. As Franny struggles to balance her desire for financial security with her concerns about her mom's well-being, she must confront the harsh realities of their situation and find a way forward.
