   Series Synopsis

Amidst the changing tides of immigration, the lives of four women intersect as they carve their respective paths into the rapidly expanding frontiers of the west.

​

A young widow and mother of four rises to be head costumer on the continent; an opera singer, born from the ashes of a post-revolution era, finds her way to the bedside of a dying Queen. An intrepid adventurer is bed ridden and becomes a world famous botanist, as a fortune teller who sees all begins to write a best-sellers of tales of the invisible, forever changing the modern world as we know it. 

 

Together, they form the Women of the West.

​

This miniseries, based on true stories, distinguishes itself by its fresh take on the historical genre, with a contemporary soundtrack featuring up and coming artists,
a nouveau cinematic style and a highly stylized production, in true millennial fashion.
