The dim light of a cramped apartment reveals a 21-year-old eldest daughter, the backbone of a fractured family. Her father, Frank, is an absent addict; her mother, Monica, abandoned them years ago. Left behind are five siblings: Lip, the irresponsible genius; Ian, the supportive fighter; Abby, the mature idolizer of their father; Carl, the violent troublemaker; and Liam, the toddler. She works tirelessly, having dropped out of high school, to keep a roof over their heads. Despite her hatred for her parents, she endures Frank's presence for their sake, determined to build a future for them.
