"Rainy days call for soapy, angst-filled dramas, and with Prime Video’s new series Sterling Point, we may have found our winner. This coming-of-age original drama written and created by Megan Park follows 17-year-old New Yorker Annie Jacobson, played by the gorgeous Ella Rubin, who, along with her twin brother Connor, Keen Ruffalo, inherits their estranged grandfather’s island, Sterling Point, on Canada’s Lake Muskoka. They arrive on the island over the summer, only to unspool decades of family secrets—including the discovery of Ramona, a younger sister they never knew they had.
It has all the hallmarks of a good watch. A love triangle, the nostalgia of youth and summer days, and a family with a closet packed with skeletons. And then there is the wardrobe, especially Annie’s, which through the series evolves from an uptight New Yorker with polished, urban separates to a young woman realising her truths, mirrored in the hand-me-downs and vintage pieces she discovers in her late mother’s wardrobe." In an exclusive interview with The Nod, Marissa Schwartz spills the beans on how she dressed Annie and the other teenagers of Sterling Point.
