But the last ten years have taken their toll and relative obscurity has turned the once mighty musicians into mere shadows of their former selves.

Former band-mate Lily (Lisa Gornick) and her partner Carol (Cheryl Dunye) are well past Lesbian Bed Death and just don't get on... anymore. So naturally they've decided to have a child. Iris throws a Pool Party what should have been a joyous occasion goes horrifically wrong and leads to a series of shocking events. They believe that their only chance to get through this is by sticking together but a mysterious stranger enters their tight knit circle and starts to unpick the ties that bind these Older Wiser Lesbians otherwise known as OWLS.
