Last weekend, Westfield Century City Mall held a pop-up wellness event in the Atrium inspired by Nine Perfect Strangers. Guests were able to escape the chaos of their daily lives with this immersive experience. Luckily, the pop-up didn’t involve any of Masha’s more extreme methods.

What wellness activities take place in ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’?

Nine Perfect Strangers delves into the darker side of wellness. The resort owner, Masha, has some unorthodox and unethical methods. For example, she microdoses her guests with psilocybin without their knowledge and encourages them to take higher doses of hallucinogenic drugs. Initially, some of the activities at Tranquillum are pretty typical for a wellness retreat.

Tranquillum certainly looks beautiful from the outside. Masha’s guests enjoy a dip in the pool or a soak in the hot springs. Yao leads the Marconi family in tai chi. Frances gets an acupuncture treatment. The guests practice meditation and fasting and enjoy healthy meals. Tranquillum is a fictional place based on a real wellness resort in Australia. It also inspired a pop-up wellness experience in LA.
