Marnie Day

By Matt graham and Sue Goberdhan

Everybody grieves in their own way. For Marnie’s friends, the last five years have been a slow trudge through grief as Leah, Jackson, and Sam try to come to terms with losing her and what it did to their chosen family. For Marnie, the last five years have been spent watching her friends stuck in the same old dingy apartment she left them in. She needs to move on, but might not be able to until they come to terms with her death and move on themselves.

The group reunites on the fifth anniversary of Marnie’s passing, but will a break from tradition be what they need to finally gain some closure?
