Not Okay

Not Okay concludes ambiguously as compulsive liar Danni Sanders attends a performance by trauma survivor Rowan to apologize for exploiting Rowan’s tragedy through false social media posts, but leaves without making amends. After Rowan gives a searing spoken word poem condemning Danni for appropriating her pain for popularity and provoking a media circus, a tearful Danni walks out, unable to face the damage she has done. The ending implies Danni realizes she will never undo the real-world harm caused by her viral deceit. Her escape into the shadows leaves the audience questioning if she has truly learned empathy. While Danni appears disturbed by Rowan’s righteous anger, the finale suggests superficial sorrys cannot heal wounds she gleefully inflicted. Not Okay’s conclusion powerfully conveys the lasting trauma caused by using others’ suffering for personal gain in our digital age. The film warns that viral fame fades fast, but the consequences of exploiting agony for attention remain real and raw. Danni’s inability to apologize highlights the hollowness of performative wokeness divorced from genuine human decency. Not Okay pointedly ends by ceding the last word to Rowan, the true victim denied agency by Danni’s schemes. The finale implies Danni still has a long path to redemption she may never complete.
