When her husband suddenly dumps her, longtime dedicated housewife Deanna turns regret into re-set by going back to college... landing in the same class and school as her daughter, who's not entirely sold on the idea. Plunging headlong into the campus experience, the increasingly outspoken Deanna – now Dee Rock – embraces freedom, fun, and frat boys on her own terms, finding her true self in a senior year no one ever expected.
Can a middle-aged housewife reclaim her identity through a chaotic collegiate rebirth? After her husband leaves, she trades domesticity for dorm life and finds herself competing for relevance alongside her own skeptical daughter.
