Oopsie Daisy follows Noah, a young Jewish man grieving the loss of his mother, who finds comfort in bringing mistakenly stolen painted stones to her grave. However, little does he know of the importance these rocks hold for a young woman, Elizabeth, who is caring for her sick grandmother, May. Noah struggles with coming to terms with the sudden death, and as a result, struggles with severe anxiety and loneliness. Similarly, Elizabeth struggles with her problems —spending time with what’s left of the grandmother she once knew, through their only connection to the past: art. When Noah and Elizabeth meet unexpectedly, they learn more about each other and form a new connection.
