Beautiful Struggle follows three young artists who have chosen to build their lives in New York, a city as magnetic as it is merciless. Through Florentina, Andres, and Greg, we wonder what still drives so many people to confront it, lose themselves in it, and reinvent themselves there. New York becomes both muse and adversary, a place that shapes those daring enough to call it home.
Beautiful Struggle suit trois jeunes artistes qui ont choisi de construire leur vie à New York, une ville aussi magnétique qu’impitoyable. À travers Florentina, Andres et Greg, on se demande ce qui pousse encore tant de gens à s’y confronter, à s’y perdre, à s’y réinventer. New York devient à la fois muse et adversaire, une présence qui marque à jamais ceux qui tentent d’y trouver leur place.
