Mi lives a hard life. She struggles with self harm, her mom doesn't care about her, she's given up on school, and doesn't feel like she has a friend in the world. But every time she falls asleep, she lives an entirely different life.
Liv has a pretty typical life. One could say hers is easy. There's that cute guy at school, her parents let her go surfing, and she mostly cares about her family. Except, every time she tries to sleep, she's living a much rougher life.
Which one is the dream, and which one is reality?
