While exploring her newfound love of art, 23-year-old Tiffany meets Sandra, an introverted bookstore employee with an air of sadness around her. After she unearths the abuse Sandra suffers at the hand of her alcoholic husband, Anthony, Tiffany does everything in her power to help her friend see there is a way out of her dysfunctional marriage. When Sandra hires Liam, a handsome private investigator charged with divulging Anthony's secret life, she finally begins to plot her escape from the marriage that holds her captive. As she struggles to overcome her crushing depression, Sandra fears for her sanity and wonders if it's too late for her to find happiness in this life. After Tiffany begins dating two seemingly perfect men, her own safety becomes compromised, and the terrifying truth about one of them is revealed much too late. 

Both in painful and amusing ways, these two friends grapple to overcome the everyday traumas of living in the #metoo era. IF ALL WOULD BE UTOPIA will tug at your heartstrings as you question if Sandra and Tiffany can make it out of this tangled web alive, or is it their destiny to become another violent statistic?
