In the wake of a personal tragedy, four women confront their pasts and futures in a poignant tale of loss and healing. The death of famed chef Augustus Beauvais leaves behind not only a celebrated reputation but also a complex legacy that each woman must navigate. Meadow, his ex-wife, grapples with lingering love and the pain of his infidelities that shattered their twenty-year marriage. Maya, his estranged daughter, recently out of rehab, seeks to reclaim her life amidst her anger and resentment. Norah, his latest girlfriend, sacrificed her career for a life of luxury that has now vanished with his passing. Lastly, Rory, Meadow’s daughter, serves as the voice of calm in a storm of emotions. As these women come together, they must confront their grief and the secrets surrounding Augustus's life and death. The questioning of his circumstances complicates their already conflicted feelings. Yet, moving forward is their only option, and they must lean on family, friendship, and their own resilience. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the California coastline, this emotional journey explores how four women find their way in a changed world, ultimately discovering strength and empowerment in their shared experiences.
