Lindsay has been hearing the voices of her parents, and school friend for years. They have always led her to take the safe option. Realising that her impending marriage to Ned, her square fiance, is not what she really wants, she takes an opportunity to leave him and move to New York. Breaking away from her old routines, despite the protestations of her inner voices, she meets Miguel, who has his own set of voices to contend with.
