Life doesn't have to stop because you're over 55! Three glamorous older women living in Palm Springs embark on “starting over†after the death/divorce from their husbands, while finding a new reason to smile through offbeat humor, laughter and crazy shenanigans.
STELLA CARMEN moves to Palm Springs after her divorce and dreads having to start all over. She meets FAYE LEBLANC and BRONWYN ST. JOHN, a widow and a fellow divorcee at a senior's social group that is filled with crazy characters. Stella lacks confidence, but Faye and Bronwyn make her come out of her shell. Faye is a lounge singer at a gay bar, and she invites Stella to come out for a drink. Bronwyn likes partaking in cocktailing, Man Hunting, and encourages Stella to comb her hair and put some makeup on. At the bar, Stella notices a handsome man DIETRICH MALONE smiling at her. She nervously smiles and looks away. Dietrich is smitten. The women bond, find humor in life's troubles, embark on a dysfunctional friendship of offbeat one-liners, while discovering their reason to sparkle.
