β¦ Synopsis
Against a backdrop of 1960s and 70s Los Angeles, 19-year-old Kate Prescott finds her soul mate in art student Jack Morrison, a man who understands her yearning to do something important with her life. Where Kate's ambitions are vague, Jack's are razor-sharp: become a famous artist. They marry, and, as Jack Morrison's wife, Kate falls under the spell of the art world and helps Jack realize his dream. However, social change is afoot in the business world where Kate earns a living, and as she progresses up the corporate ladder, her own ambitions crystallize: this is where she belongs. Inevitably, as Jack's star rises, his priorities clash with Kate's. The consequences force Kate to confront the possibility of a life where she's no longer Jack Morrison's wife, and to face the deeper challenge of who she might truly be.
