One of these about Necessary People offers it all. One of them wants everything. However they can’t both earn.

Stella and Violet are close friends, and as soon as they met in college, they knew their roles. Beautiful, privileged, and reckless Stella lives in the limelight. Hardworking, laser-focused Violet stays behind the moments, always ready to clean up the clutter that Stella inevitably leaves in her wake.

After graduation, Violet moves to New York and lands a job in cable news, where she functions her way up from intern to assistant to producer, and to a life where she’s finally clear of Stella’s shadow. Within this fast-paced world, Violet thrives, and her ambitions grow — but everything is normally jeopardized when Stella, envious of Violet’s new lease of life, uses her cable connections, beauty, and charisma to obtain employed at the same network. Stella quickly moves before the camera, getting the public encounter of the stories that Violet spent some time working tirelessly to produce — and taking all the credit.

Stella might be the one with the rich family and the proper close friends, but Violet isn’t giving up thus easily. As she and Stella shoot for success, each reveals precisely how far she’ll head to obtain what she wants — also if it means destroying the other person along the way.
