Mara and Gianni are a strong couple, despite their differences, that had recently gotten married. They live in an old cottage house with recycled furniture and tons of stuff everywhere, in perfect symphony with the nature surrounding them. A ‘creative biodiversity’. A bizarre wedding gift will turn their lives upside down.
Mara e Gianni sono una coppia, affiatata nonostante le reciproche differenze, che ha appena compiuto il “grande passo”, sposandosi dopo diversi anni di vita insieme. Abitano da sempre in un casolare in campagna il cui arredamento, composto da mobili riciclati e cianfrusaglie sparse apparentemente a caso, sembra essersi perfettamente adattato alla natura che la circonda, in una perfetta “biodiversità creativa”. A sconvolgere le loro vite ci penserà, però, il mondo esterno sotto forma di un bizzarro regalo di nozze…
