Seven Wonders finds main character Pandora bitter and unhappy after the failure of her relationship. Instead of cuddling up with a tub of ice cream and a marathon of romantic movies, she becomes obsessed with the relationship between an adverts director and the helmer’s boyfriend. So she ends up following the pair around the world as the director films commercials at the Seven Wonders of the World.
