Sweet Magnolias will be released to play in Netflix Stories on Thursday February 6 at 12 PM EST. (17:00 UTC)

After a career scandal leaves you with no money, no job, and no place to stay, you have no choice but to run back to the one place you vowed never to return to… Serenity, South Carolina. To everyone else, it’s a beautiful small-town where the folks are sweeter than sweet tea. But to you, it’s the place your entire family fell apart 30 years ago. Serenity is the reason why you’ve never let yourself get attached to anywhere or anyone. And, you have no intention of changing your ways. As soon as you’re back on your feet again, you’ll be gone in a flash.

But as you spend this summer in Serenity, you form vibrant friendships with three women who call themselves the Sweet Magnolias (experts at pulling your feelings out of you over a strong margarita), befriend a teenage stowaway living in the manor you inherited, and find yourself falling for someone new… or falling again for an old flame. As long-buried family secrets come to light, challenging everything you once believed, will you find the strength to trust enough to put down roots? Or will you take off again, running after yet another great escape?
