    Storyline

    Edit
    Romanian born Danielle (Giulia Nahmany) is living the dream in NYC working at Beguile magazine under urban-diva fashion editor Vivian (Jane Seymour). But when a coworker steals her idea and her boyfriend, Danielle can't help but speak her mind to Vivian and loses her job. Now on the fashion blacklist with no place to go, Danielle heads home to Romania and back to the farm in Transylvania. After the initial culture shock subsides, Danielle begins to find solace with her family and friends. She runs into a charming Brit named Adrian (David Oakes), in town on a business trip, and sparks fly as he helps her discover a passion she left behind; designing her own clothing line. Now with the help of a magazine pal, can Danielle and her Romanian theme clothing line make it at New York Fashion Week? —production company

    starting over
    Danielle ( Giulia Nahmany ) is a romanian working in new york city, and just loving her life. But when her mover- shaker boss Vivien (Jane Seymour) lets a coworker present Danielle's idea, she takes a stand. And is now out of work. Sound familiar ? Some similarities to Devil Wears Prada. And eight years later. When Danielle returns home, her mother, and all the neighbors want to help. When she almost runs down a british guy, a romance blossoms. And her family and friends are more help than she ever thought they would be in getting her back on her feet. It's cute. Simple.. nothing too crazy, but its good. Story by Giulia Nahmany. Directed by Michael Damian. Showing on roku channel.
