"Julie and her estranged twin, Chloe, may look identical, but that’s where the similarities end. Julie works at a supermarket, while her sister revels in the love of millions as a social media influencer. But when Chloe dies, Julie realizes she can pass for her twin – if people don’t look too closely. What follows is a thrilling, haunting look at the upkeep of pretending to be someone you’re not, whether on-screen or in person. As Julie goes to brow-raising lengths to keep up the farce and maintain her newfound audience’s love, you’ll find yourself asking whether she has a limit."
