Fractured Stars - Adopted by Elizabeth Olsen
10 parts Ongoing [UPDATES: Tuesdays]
Famed actress Elizabeth Olsen, seeking respite from the Hollywood blockbuster scene, takes on an intimate indie film project, Fractured Stars, about loss and healing. The film brings her to a sleepy German town, where she meets Isabelle Astra Mason, a precocious 15-year-old starting actress who has just suffered a devastating loss: the death of her father. Their shared project mirrors Isabelle's life so closely it feels almost eerie. Bound by their adjacent hotel rooms and the film's emotionally raw content, Elizabeth and Isabelle form an unorthodox but deeply transformative bond that feels almost maternal.
As the line between art and reality blurs, Elizabeth grapples with her own vulnerabilities as a mother figure, navigating Isabelle's grief while balancing her role as a wife to musician Robbie Arnett, who remains in the U.S. Isabelle, meanwhile, finds herself torn between her fierce independence and yearning for guidance and care she hasn't had since birth. Together, they'll discover that healing doesn't come in the way they expect but through connection and shared strength.
