A comedy centering around Donna, a young woman from meager beginnings, who has high hopes for the future and dreams of living the glamorous life.

The road to success though, is rarely a smooth flight, and as she begins her trip she encounters more turbulence than even she bargained for. But the real question is whether her bumpy start will force her to leave her real dreams behind, or if it will take her on a journey of a lifetime.
