Serena was experiencing a peak in her career as a documentary filmmaker, her latest film garnering rave reviews. The feeling of elation coursed through her as she sorted through her grandfather's old belongings. She found a leather-bound album filled with photographs.

One image showed her grandmother, a woman she'd always seen as reserved and quiet, standing in front of the Eiffel Tower, her face lit with a mischievous grin.

A sense of delight bubbled up within her. Her grandmother, whose life she'd always thought was simple, had a secret life of adventure. Her own professional success felt even richer now, more complex.

Serena felt a renewed sense of purpose. She began formulating a new film idea, exploring the hidden lives of women in her family.
