Thanks! Romina is a slice-of-life that interweaves family pressure, early career woes, and a heaping helping of interpersonal drama. Humor and hints of complicated romance follow Romina as she tries to strike out on her own in Los Angeles. For Romina, moving from Florida to Los Angeles means getting out from under her family’s accomplished shadow to strike out for her own success. Her father is a successful and hardworking immigrant, and her sister is a high-powered lawyer—neither understands what it’s like to try to break into Hollywood. And after her first crazy morning at LockRoy Post, Romina isn’t sure that she knew what it was going to be like either. Romina hasn’t even gotten her feet under her at the new job when one of her coworkers quits, and she is given some of his oldest and toughest clients in the biz. There’s enough pressure to turn carbon into a diamond, but Romina’s not one to back down from a challenge. She’s got bills to pay and experience to gain, so Romina presses on despite the chaotic and disorganized mess she now knows her workplace to be. It’s not all bad, though—most of the people there seem jaded by the entertainment industry, but they band together when times are tough to hit their deadlines and fix mistakes. Watch Romina get her start in life, rife with seemingly impossible deadlines, lots of takeout, and workplace drama—all illustrated by her own internal monologue brought on by an overactive imagination.
