Dear Lena

Captives of the very relationships that define and sustain them, nine women resiliently meet the travails and disappointments of life.

Through the course of their lives, a man and his first love are repeatedly separated from each other because of circumstances out of their control.

Trying to put her life back together after the death of her husband, Libby and her children move to her estranged Aunt's goat farm in central Texas.

After losing both her parents, Failan emmigrates to Korea to seek her only remaining relatives. Once she reaches Korea, she finds out that her relatives have moved to Canada well over a year ago. Desperate to stay and make a living in Korea, Failan is forced to have an arranged marriage through a match-making agency.
