Synopsis

When teenager Nadine Harvey helps her best friend hide a disturbing secret, she's also concealing her own deepest truth: she'll do almost anything to be wanted. Five years and three thousand miles later, Nadine is thrilled when her idol, Celeste-- a rock singer known as " the oracle" -- befriends her. As Celeste's career begins to falter, she launches a bold program encouraging women to speak their truths. Nadine eagerly becomes her business partner, but as their ambitions clash, their alliance starts to unravel. Determined to hide their growing rift, Celeste and Nadine invite their mothers to a high-profile awards gala. When painful histories resurface, each woman must confront how she sees herself-- and how the world sees her.
