This modern retelling of Madame Bovary fast forwards to a world 200 years after the original work. Based in New York-not France- the mundane and repetitive nature of life is still harshly faced and critiqued by Emma Bovary, the great-great-great-granddaughter of the original adulterous farmgirl.
Emma Bovary's life appears perfect on the surface: a lucrative career, a stylish apartment in Brooklyn, and a well-respected husband, Franz, who is a kind-hearted but somewhat dull doctor. However, Emma's restless spirit craves excitement and passion that her routine urban life fails to provide.
While attending a high-profile industry event, Emma meets Léon, a charming and creative man of mystery. They quickly form a deep connection, sharing a love for marketing, music, and the finer things in life. Léon is captivated by Emma's intelligence and beauty, and they begin a dance of intrigue.
She dives into her past to redeem her present. On a trip to Paris, she realizes the mistakes of her mother, but in duality she learns from these mistakes. Standing in front of the Eiffel Tower, she discovers a universal truth. Will the enormity of the situation prove to be too much pressure or will it be perceived for what it is- immense power? Emma is faced with an unknown future. Will she give it her all, or will she yield to nature's unending mysteries?
In the end, Emma Bovary emerges as a stronger, more self-aware woman who understands that true happiness comes from within. Urban Desires is a story of love, ambition, and self-discovery, capturing the essence of a modern woman navigating the complexities of life and love in a fast-paced urban environment.
Will seeing the hard truths of life and the unintentional nature of the world inspire her or destroy her? Join Emma as she waits to die.
