Meet Jane. Your average over-achieving Singaporean girl. She’s got the grades, the job and the boy but the one thing holding her back? Her ovaries. Diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), Jane’s life cracks under the symptoms as she scrambles to get her old life back. With her fellow “cyst-er” Xin Yi, the two women try to get to the bottom of this complex chronic illness to free themselves and women everywhere. Through lo-fi raps, spin class and a Multi-Level-Marketing scheme, the two women question - what does it mean to cope with something you have no control of?
