Enlightened - Episode 1




A raging corporate lunatic throws away her shampoo, dons a pair of sandals and becomes a zenned out modern day hippie in Enlightened.

After an over the top workplace meltdown, Amy Jellicoe (brilliantly portrayed by Laura Dern) finds her true voice and higher self in Hawaii and returns to her old job to spread love, serenity and utter confusion to "a corporate parasite that is raping the land and people and, like, drugging America's kids".

Laugh out loud funny, yet touching, Enlightened brings unexpected joy to M-Net Series on Saturdays at 22h30


Enlightened also stars Luke Wilson and Diane Ladd, Dern's real life mother. Dern won a Golden Globe for her portrayal of the zen garden on a volcano that is Amy.
