Power couple Benjamin Braxton and Mira Blair see their picture-perfect life go gloriously off script, taking their friends, flings, and daughter along for the ride. The Disappear peels back the curtain on fame, ambition, marriage, and reinvention in a smoldering comedy about how keeping it together sometimes means letting it all go.
