In the bustling city of Chicago in 1914, three sisters - Rae, Lily, and Delia - found themselves at the forefront of the early movie industry, facing a world of success, betrayal, and danger. When Rae Kelly, the sensible one, accidentally picks a pocket, she discovers a mysterious list of numbers inside the empty wallet. This chance encounter leads Lukas Krantz, a local gangster, to purchase the wallet and paper, offering the sisters an unexpected entry into RidgeW Pictures, where Matt Ridgewood is desperately trying to make his studio competitive.
Seizing the opportunity, the sisters each take on different roles within the burgeoning film industry. Rae, lying about her age, becomes a child adventurer on the silver screen, while the gorgeous Lily plays the sweet heroine in westerns, her sights set on securing a rich society husband. Reckless Delia, abandoning her farmer-husband, sheds her clothes for the camera, embracing the newfound freedom and excitement of the movie world.
Despite their diverse paths, the sisters remain fiercely loyal to one another, navigating the treacherous waters of misplaced passions, deception, and the looming threat of World War I. As they strive for success, they face betrayal and even the specter of murder, their dreams and ambitions colliding with the harsh realities of their changing world.
The three sisters, each with their own unique strengths and vulnerabilities, are forced to confront the consequences of their choices, as they grapple with the shifting tides of the early movie industry. Rae's pragmatism, Lily's beauty, and Delia's recklessness all come into play, creating a compelling narrative that explores the challenges and triumphs of women carving out their own paths in a male-dominated landscape.
Through their intertwined stories, the sisters discover the true meaning of sisterhood, loyalty, and the sacrifices required to achieve their dreams. As the world around them transforms, they must find the courage to navigate the treacherous waters of love, ambition, and the unexpected twists of fate that threaten to tear them apart.
