Twenty-something Edie has finally gotten brave and started creating the art she has always wanted to make, but that is about the only good thing going on in her life--she shares a dirty Bushwick apartment and works a grueling administration job, and her sexual choices have been sub-par at best. Then she meets Eric, a New Jersey digital archivist, whose wife invites Edie into their home as part of an open marriage with rules. Edie takes the invitation, and hesitantly becomes an ally of Eric's wife and, as the only black woman in her life, to her adopted daughter Akila. However, such arrangements often do not last or end well.
