Plot: On the weekend before finalizing Xan’s divorce, she decides to gather her closest friends in Joshua Tree to relax, celebrate, and more appropriately, sulk. The gang arrives at their less than tranquil lodging, an RV park in Joshua Tree (no, it isn’t a ‘low - key’ chic one). They meet their “eccentric” neighbors Ezekiel, a pansexual hick, and Amara, an Instagram bohemian hippie. That evening, Xan drunkenly spirals out and reveals that she’ll have to give up half of all of her assets to her soon - to - be ex in the divorce settlement come Monday, so she drained her bank account and brought $100K in cash to the desert. She starts throwing the money into the bonfire before her friends spring into action and stop her. Lines are soon drawn as every friend has a different opinion on what Xan should do with the money. Samantha, always practical, wants her to invest in a conservative long - term mutual fund. Ren, three years in recovery, wants her to selflessly donate all of the money to different women's shelters and nature preserves. Isabella (who is trying to hide her own recent engagement) thinks Xan should use it for her own self - care, and Wendy just wants her to fritter it all away on strippers and drugs. Xan decides to split the cash evenly between each of her friends, with only one caveat: they must spend it all this weekend. They each get to live out their ideal way of helping their friend through this heartbreak. As they spend their way through Joshua Tree the group learns that maybe Xan isn’t telling the whole story. As Xan and her friends’ tensions come to a head, Ezekiel and Amara plot to steal th e rest of Xan’s savings. Although they are able to band together and dupe the couple’s scam, the damage Xan has done to her friends is irreversible. Xan’s only goal now is to get the few friendships that matter back on track before the weekend is up.

The film will be released on the 30th of April, 2024.
