THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD

Julie is turning 30, her life an existential mess. Her potential has gone to waste and her older boyfriend, a successful novelist, is pushing for them to settle down. Crashing out, she gatecrashes a party and meets a young, charming dude. Before long, she breaks up with her boyfriend and throws herself into yet another new relationship, hoping—beyond hope—for one more chance at another life.
