2 Male 2 Female

Greg's tight-knit social circle is thrown into turmoil when his offhand remarks about a female co-worker's pretty face and his own girlfriend Steph's lack thereof get back to Steph

But that's just the beginning. Greg's best buddy, Kent, and Kent's wife, Carly, also enter into the picture, and the emotional equation becomes exponentially more complicated

As their relationships crumble, the four friends are forced to confront a sea of deceit, infidelity, and betrayed trust in their journey to answer that oh-so-American question: How much is pretty worth?

America's obsession with physical beauty is confronted headlong in this brutal and exhilarating work
