Directed by Matt Spicer, this flick stars Aubrey Plaza. She plays this lonely, totally unstable young woman who gets completely obsessed with the "Instagram lifestyle guru" vibe of Elizabeth Olsen and ends up moving all the way to California just to become her best friend.
After losing her mom and dealing with a string of self-inflicted disasters, young Ingrid Thorburn (Plaza) flees her boring everyday life to go Westward Bound. There, she hits it off with her social media idol, Los Angeles socialite Taylor Sloana (Olsen). But once they bond—way too fast, honestly—the whole facade starts falling apart for both of them, leading to some pretty hilarious yet dark consequences.

I wasn't expecting much, but man, I was actually pleasantly surprised! (Plus, I gotta watch basically anything with Olsen, right?) It’s a solid little satirical comedy-thriller about this generation's obsession with hashtags and celebrity worship. Seriously, why are we like this?
