A Look Back at the Season One Plot, Courtesy of HBO:
Euphoria centers around a group of high school students as they navigate a minefield of drugs, sex, identity, trauma, social media, love and friendship.
Euphoria puts a fresh spin on the coming-of-age narrative, exploring the teenage landscape of substance-enhanced parties and anxiety-ridden day-to-day life with empathy and candor. The series follows 17-year-old Rue Bennett, a drug addict fresh from rehab, who’s struggling to make sense of her future. Her life changes dramatically when she meets Jules Vaughn (Schafer), a girl who recently moved to town following her parents’ divorce, and like Rue is searching for where she belongs.
