Details

In the movie Wanderlust, Linda and George, a couple living in New York, face financial difficulties when Linda's documentary about penguins is rejected by HBO and George loses his job. Forced to sell their expensive Manhattan apartment at a loss, they decide to relocate to Atlanta where George's brother offers him a job in his company.

On their way to Atlanta, they stop at a hotel called Elysium for the night. However, they soon discover that Elysium is a hippie and vegan community. Despite their initial intention to move on, the couple is persuaded to stay with the community for a two-week trial.

Linda quickly adapts to the laid-back and alternative lifestyle of the Elysium residents and befriends them. On the other hand, George struggles to fit in and clashes with the community's rules and ideals. As tensions rise, George's relationship with his brother worsens, leading him to return to Elysium with Linda.

During their stay at Elysium, Linda and George experience personal growth and learn valuable lessons about love, happiness, and self-discovery. The couple realizes that material possessions and societal expectations do not define their happiness and that true fulfillment lies in embracing themselves and their unconventional choices.

Wanderlust is a comedy-drama that showcases the journey of two individuals navigating through personal and societal challenges as they discover an unexpected sense of belonging in an unconventional community.
