Early morning sunrises with Chris kindle fresh inspiration and Anna must decide whether it’s possible to honor the past while making room for something new.
As the tides of creativity pull them closer, Anna and Chris must each navigate old wounds, creative doubts, and the possibility adding a new chapter to their lives.
