Idealistic and newly appointed state governor Ella McCay (Emma Mackey) must navigate the demands of high stakes politics while entangled in a dysfunctional and emotionally charged family. As she balances public duty with private trauma — from an absentee father (Woody Harrelson) to an overbearing aunt (Jamie Lee Curtis) — Ella discovers survival means learning who you love…and who you need to survive them.
