TRUFFLE SAUCE Screenplay
WTF is truffle sauce? Tweet doesn't know but she needs to pay one last tuition bill in order to graduate from community college to fulfill the agreement with her grandparents. Graduate = get a tattoo shop. But Tweet's a fuck up. She's a 25-year-old tattoo artist and she keeps letting life get in the way. But not this time. She's gonna sell the damn truffle sauce, pay her bill, and start over... for real this time. That is until a customer from her past arrives making her choose between toxicity and an unknown future. Shit.
