A young girl's already complicated life spirals into chaos when her boyfriend's uncle murders his father and marries his mother. Ophelia struggles to find a balance between exploring her identity, fulfilling her duties towards her family and society, supporting her unstable boyfriend through dark times and finding light in her own. At the end of her rope, she turns to the internet for advice.
