In quiet, tree-lined Granada Hills, California, Eugenia Lester’s hoarding disorder has entered a dangerous and life threatening stage. The film opens with her mother climbing through her own home’s window, stepping on top of stacks of newspapers, piles of debris, rotting material, clothing, and toys; a living mass of waste that has literally pushed her out of the house and into her garden.
