ABOUT LAID
A woman finds out her former lovers are dying in unusual ways and must go back through her sex timeline to confront her past in order to move forward – LAID is a f**cked up rom-com where the answer to “Why can't I find love, is there something wrong with me?” is a resounding “Yes. There is. The problem is definitely you.”
