“Inventing Anna” follows Anna Delvey who with a fake name and a fake identity, entered the New York socialite circle to build up her contacts so that she could fulfill her dream of creating a brand and establishing a social Soho-like art club named Anna Delvey Foundation (ADF). She told everyone that she was a German heiress and that her father had given her a trust fund of about 60 million dollars, which she couldn’t access until she had attained the age of 25. Hence, all her elite friends handled her expenses, whom Anna evidently scammed to climb up the hierarchy ladder.
But it wasn’t just Anna who was using these people as a ladder, but instead, these elite folks used her too, in their own ways. They wanted to associate with Anna because they saw passion, poshness, and vanity in her, which made them believe that Anna Delvey was indeed a very important person who would help them grow further. Hence, with the selfish pursuit on both sides, began a chain of affairs that built Anna Delvey’s world, which these characters became a part of.
