In the vibrant backdrop of the roaring 1920s, we follow the life of a young and attractive woman named Joan. The plot unfolds when, after a deceptive breakup, Joan finds herself trapped between two worlds: the dazzling glamour of high society and the challenges of being a fiercely independent woman. With a traditional mother who pressures her to conform to the conservative norms of the time, Joan must navigate a sea of social expectations and her own ambitions.
The story takes an unexpected turn when Joan falls in love with a charming bohemian artist, whose carefree and free-spirited lifestyle clashes with her family's rigid conventions. As their relationship intensifies, Joan faces criticism and judgment from her social circle. The tension mounts when the pressure on her turns into a dilemma: should she follow the safe but dull path of family tradition or risk everything for a true love that could free her from the chains of her strict lifestyle?
Through an emotional journey filled with moral dilemmas, romantic entanglements, and the struggle for self-determination, the film captures the essence of an era when women began to challenge established norms, all while immersing itself in a visual almanac of the time that reflects the cultural changes that were to come. Joan becomes a symbol of the fight for personal freedom in a world full of expectations.
