Synopsis

A group of estranged friends meet at the American Museum of Natural History to hold a Love Funeral for the relationship that nearly ended one of their lives.

Rena, Amber, and Carter have been friends for years, but their relationship is complicated. Rena is Carter's sister, but he used to date Amber. They all worked as professional street clowns, but the business failed over a year ago. After Rena summons them together to reinstate their traditional 'love funeral' following a break up, they are forced to confront the current state of their friendship. Rena is trying to pull her life together after attempting to commit suicide, and she wants her brother and best friend to do the same.
