Hoping to understand, and escape, this inheritance she undergoes past life regression therapy and relives three former lives: a defiant female painter in 1482 Florence, a resourceful woman entangled in espionage during the Spanish Inquisition, and a gay man navigating love and loss in 1980s SoHo amid the AIDS crisis. Across time, one presence recurs: Dario, an Italian poet whose connection to Marisol transcends centuries. As their lives intertwine, Marisol must confront whether love is governed by fate, choice, or something more complex.
