Synopsis

Spoiler shield

In this dark comedy of manners, soccer moms Jill and Lisa seek the approval of their "friends" – at all costs. Set in a surreal world, Greener Grass explores one's willingness to endure present pain in exchange for future validation – or at least a perfect smile.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
