When the downtrodden Devon arrives at a beachfront mansion for a belated birthday celebration with her sister Simone, the plan is for a girls’ weekend of luxury and alcohol.

It offers strong comedic female roles, humor that millennials and Gen Z will undoubtedly appreciate, and sardonic commentary on a particular subtype of the mega-wealthy.
