Spoilers ahead

In 2013 Michigan, Rachel Whitaker, who has been raised in an evangelical Christian tradition, hosts a going-away party with friends and family as she prepares to leave for college. The atmosphere is warm and celebratory, but the conversations begin to tilt as she starts to question what she has always believed. Her mind is teased by a biology class instructor who represents a different path: an atheist viewpoint that centers on evolution rather than creationism. This stark contrast plants the first seeds of doubt in her, nudging her toward a more questioning stance about faith and meaning.
