Retreat to You

The film begins with a flashback to high school, where Abby and Sean are inseparable best friends. After Abby's breakup with a boyfriend named Dylan, they plan a cross-country trip starting in Portland, but Sean never shows up at the bus stop, leaving Abby to travel alone and harboring 17 years of resentment. In the present, Abby is a high-strung public defender in L.A. Her friend Rachel convinces her to visit Azur Ridge Wellness Retreat, an eccentric 'adult summer camp' run by the overly enthusiastic Randy. Upon arrival, Abby is horrified to find Sean is also a guest. The tension is immediate, but they are forced into proximity through retreat activities like horseback riding—where Sean reveals he is now a veterinarian—and a high-ropes course where Abby has to rescue a terrified, height-phobic Sean. During a 'sunset hike' that isn't part of the official curriculum, the two get lost in the wilderness. They spend two nights surviving in the woods, during which Abby kills a fish for food (horrifying the vegetarian Sean) and Sean reveals the truth: he didn't show up at the bus stop because he saw Abby kissing her ex-boyfriend Dylan and believed his secret love for her was unrequited. He also shares that his mother recently passed away, which prompted his trip to the retreat. Meanwhile, Rachel forms an 'unofficial' search party with the retreat's chef, Mason, and a bickering older couple, Barb and Bart. They successfully track the duo using a trail of fruit snacks Abby dropped. Once rescued, Abby's defensive 'realist' nature kicks in, and she tells Sean that a relationship is illogical due to the distance between Hayward and L.A. Sean leaves the retreat early, heartbroken again. Rachel confronts Abby about her emotional walls, leading Abby to participate in a 'talking circle' where she finally expresses her true feelings. Sean returns for the final night's dance, revealing he is willing to move his veterinary practice to L.A. to be with her. The film ends with the two dancing and finally moving past their teenage heartbreak.
