Alice

Alice Tate enjoys a life of upper-class comfort in Manhattan, spending her days shopping, receiving beauty treatments, and socializing with friends. This luxurious lifestyle, however, masks deeper issues in her marriage.

Alice meets Joe Ruffalo, a handsome jazz musician, and feels an inexplicable attraction towards him. This encounter sets off a chain of emotions that challenges her views on love and fidelity.

Struggling with her attraction to Joe, Alice experiences Catholic guilt, which manifests as a backache. This inner conflict leads her to seek help from Dr. Yang, an Asian herbalist.

Under hypnosis with Dr. Yang, Alice uncovers the truth about her marriage with Doug, realizing her initial attraction was based on superficial qualities. She also admits her feelings for Joe during the session.

Dr. Yang provides Alice with ancient herbs that encourage her to pursue her feelings for Joe. Excited about their upcoming meeting, Alice is soon appalled when the effects of the herbs wear off.

Alice receives a new herbal remedy that turns her invisible. She uses this power to spy on Joe, discovering his intimate encounter with his ex-wife Vicki, which leaves her feeling relieved she didn’t meet him.

Alice receives guidance from the ghost of her first lover, Ed, who encourages her to explore her relationship with Joe further. This prompts them to meet under the guise of their children having a play-date.

After feeling overwhelmed by guilt, Alice returns to Dr. Yang and falls asleep during a session. She dreams about her upbringing and realizes she has strayed from her values and goals in her materialistic life.

At a fundraising event for Mother Teresa, Alice experiences another epiphany about her life and her feelings for Joe solidify when they sleep together for the first time afterward.

Alice shares her invisibility herbs with Joe. While invisible, she overhears her friends discussing her relationship with Joe, and learns that Doug has been unfaithful as well.

Alice's invisibility wears off at an office party where she sees Doug kissing a colleague. Heartbroken, she confronts Doug about his infidelity and decides it's time to end their marriage.

After hearing from Dr. Yang that she can create a love potion, Alice must decide between Joe and Doug. She seeks advice from her sister Dorothy, but chaos ensues at a Christmas party.

Alice tells Doug that their marriage is over and expresses her desire to work with Mother Teresa in Calcutta. Doug doubts her decision, but Alice is determined to pursue a more meaningful life.

Alice travels to Calcutta, where she finally meets Mother Teresa, an experience that profoundly changes her. This journey marks a significant turning point in her quest for purpose.

Upon returning to New York, Alice embraces her new life in a modest apartment while raising her children alone. She dedicates her time to volunteer work, having left her luxurious past behind.
