An official synopsis for the film, accessed by 'Variety', reads: "After imploding in the worst way possible on a wildly popular American dating show, Laurel Mack (Roberts) must do the ultimate walk of shame... back to her hometown.
"Having failed to win love on the show, Laurel finds herself living in her quirky parents' basement, without any friends, constantly bumping into the miserable ex the whole town adores, and experiencing the constant mockery of all who witnessed her public meltdown.
"She embarks on a hilarious and heartfelt journey to discover self-love, and with that, real connections with others."
Roberts is currently in production on Ryan Murphy's "American Horror Story: Delicate" and recently wrapped production on Marvel's Spider-Man spin-off "Madame Web". Roberts will next begin production on Frank Coraci's "Verona Spies", and will also executive produce the romantic comedy "Space Cadet".
