Linda (Rose Byrne), a therapist, finds herself juggling several crises at the same time, including a collapsing ceiling and an indifferent colleague (Conan O’Brien).

Mary Bronstein’s intention was to illustrate how women view what it’s like to be ignored and not taken seriously, and this creative, wild ride was appreciated by many critics, not least for Byrne’s superior performance. Watching O’Brien in his first serious role is also intriguing.

But the sheer amount of nonstop ugly conflicts and challenges for Linda is exhausting.
