Synopsis

Henry Luce needs a cover story for Life Magazine, and he’s found it in Tood, Weetsie and Sybill Cliffert. Intrigued by these three young Louisiana housewives, keeping the home fires burning for their husbands – three brothers who are all off at war – he sends Kate Miller to write his prize story. Fresh off assignment in Europe, Kate resents being assigned to a fluff piece about military wives, but she hasn’t landed a cover story yet and ambition is riding her hard. A week with the Clifferts rocks the foundations of Kate’s world and all four women walk away changed – for Life.
