Hollis Shaw, a famed food influencer known for her delicious recipes, impeccable taste, and warm demeanor suffers a devastating loss. Unable to move forward, the death starts to expose the cracks in Hollis’s picture-perfect life—her strained marriage, her complicated relationship with her daughter, and her growing pursuit of validation from her followers. In an effort to overcome grief and find herself again, Hollis gets the idea to host a weekend away at her house on Nantucket with three friends from different stages in her life: her childhood, her twenties, thirties, and one surprise fifth star. Set against a luxurious and coastal backdrop, they will mature in ways they could never imagine as boundaries are pushed and secrets are exposed.
Billed as a story about love, sex and passion – a reflection of the meaning of life and the relentless passage of time, The Trio follows middle-aged Hugo. When he is approached by the daughter of both of his childhood loves, he is thrown back in time to a moment when his younger self is about to start university and has moved to Stockholm and to stay with the Stiller family. There he meets Thora, the daughter of the house, and August, her constant companion and occasional lover. It is the beginning of a deep friendship and a whirlwind love affair. It is also the reason why Hugo never moved on.
