Lucas and Clarabelle know they’re not healthy enough for a relationship. They drink too much in Pittsburgh bars and are prone to self-sabotage. To outrun their troubles, they head to Europe, and at first things seem to be okay. But as Germany bleeds into France, and France into Belgium, the truth about their private histories begins to emerge in dangerous ways. Each reluctantly confesses the lies they’ve built their so-called love upon. The truth is intoxicating, even freeing, but their confessions eventually threaten not only their relationship but a safe return to Pittsburgh.
