SYNOPSIS
Eden, a young journalist, Melissa, a fortysomething mother of three, and Connie, an older soon-to-be divorcée, come to the “Nuova Me” spa for a weeklong wellness retreat, seeking the glow of truer health from guru Iris Windsor and her staff. Will Nuova Me enable the women to achieve what they seek? Or will they discover that the more you pursue the imaginary finish line of wellness, the further from it you feel? The three women make (and sometimes break) powerful bonds, reassessing their priorities as Iris tries to keep them line to serve her own needs — as well as the needs of a company on the verge of becoming a global brand.
