A surprisingly sexy, darkly funny, emotional rollercoaster. Persian Lela and her sensual daughter June take a trip to the romantic Azores after their major loss — with opposite ideas about why they’re there, how to grieve, and June’s tiny bikini. Between honeymooners, Woman Life Freedom, and their hot philosophical-surfer tour guide João, they find each other… coming back to life.
