In 1959, a new wonderdrug - Tesoteramide - is ready for testing, promising beauty to the unborn daughters of any woman who takes it. Pregnant housewife Audre heads straight to the clinic with her ecstatic Mother to sign up. But when Audre voices some last-minute doubts, it becomes clear that Tesoteramide - and so-called eternal beauty is no longer optional. Can she escape and maintain her individuality? Or is the cult of beauty standard conformity too powerful?
