DESCRIPTION:
(from ABC Family's press release, June 2014) "Unstrung" explores the sexy, cutthroat, and emotional stakes of the professional world tour of tennis as brother and sister Luke and Ellie Holt compete to move up the ranks. The Holts may seem to have it all in a world where success is not only determined by prowess on the court but by looks, charm and the ability to hide your faults under pressure from fans, critics, opponents, and even your closest allies. But a major family secret threatens to turn their lives and their hard-earned family "brand" upside down. Emily Whitesell ("Life Unexpected") and Paul Stupin ("Switched at Birth") executive produce.
