The Retreat
A webseries written by Sophie Dessertaine-Williams, directed by Victoria Zerbst and produced by Zaina Ahmed
Following yet another disappointing romantic interaction with a man, the hapless, unlucky-in-love Sam drags her unwitting best friend Taylor – who seemingly has it all – to a no-men retreat where their friendship is challenged by the guests they meet during their stay. A comedy web series that explores what it means to be a woman today. Following different characters across age, race, sexuality and experience, it poses the question: what would a no-men retreat look like, who would go, and why?
