A-list vegan chef Sarma Melngailis falls for a mysterious charmer who sweeps her off her feet, promising to pay her debts. Is he too good to be true?
Anthony's claims grow increasingly bizarre — he even convinces Sarma he has magical powers. Over the course of two years, she wires him $1.7 million.
Anthony takes control of the restaurant. While he and Sarma travel around Europe, the employees stop getting paid — and walk out.
Sarma and Anthony flee to Las Vegas, then hide out in the tourist town of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, where their past finally catches up with them.
