What is This Is Me...Now: A Love Story about?

Judging by the trailer the film is a dramatised version of Lopez' life, described as "an intimate, fantastical and narrative-driven reflection of Lopez’s journey to find love". It would seem to include her four marriages - to Ojani Noa (1997–1998), Cris Judd (2001–2003), Marc Anthony (2004–2014) and Ben Affleck (2020-present) and a group of friends confronting her with concerns she is a "sex addict". Promotional material from Amazon says it is a "genre-bending Amazon original showcasing journey to love through her own eyes. With fantastical costumes, breathtaking choreography, and star-studded cameos, this panorama is an introspective retrospective of Jennifer’s resilient heart.”
