Turning Away from the Sunset tells two love stories from the perspective of each person in love. The plot involves four characters: a chef with his own restaurant and TV show; his personal assistant he has a huge crush on; a world-renowned pianist; a writer who has published her best-selling book. It is this book that puts a twist on the lives of the four characters, causing them to interact with each other and share what they all consider their ultimate truths and emotional rights. This leads to ridiculous, embarrassing and inspiring situations and day dreaming. Turning Away from the Sunset is a story about the beauty of sadness, it is about sunsets, dancing and cooking as art.
