Friends Ron, Jonathan, Richard, and Tim have known each other since college. They reunite in Big Sur to celebrate Tim’s 44th birthday. Each of them enjoys some degree of professional success but is unfulfilled with their lives. Ron is a stockbroker, currently facing indictment from the SEC for embezzlement. Jonathan runs a medical practice for wealthy drug addicts, divorced and with a son who identifies more with his stepfather. Richard is a published author now teaching high school English. Tim, openly bisexual, was in a happy relationship until causing a fatal car crash five years ago, taking the lives of his boyfriend and sister.
The friends party for several days at a beachside mansion, consuming drugs provided by Jonathan. Tim engages in a three-way role play with two revelers as his deceased boyfriend and sister. The next morning, they find Tim dead by suicide with a suicide note revealing a pact made in 1986, promising mutual suicide if life became unfulfilling in middle age. They bury Tim on the beach to avoid police suspicion.
As events spiral, Ron is afraid of the indictment while Jonathan saves a man’s life, drawing police attention. Richard ends Ron’s suffering and later decides to end his own life. Jonathan follows suit, leaving Richard to confront his emotions and artistic expression of the suicide pact. In a final act, Richard jumps off a cliff, concluding the dark journey of the friends.
