Sandrine is fed up with her unfulfilling existence as a computer trainer and the everyday problems of city life and decides to leave
Paris to become a farmer. Sandrine buys a farm in South-East France from an old widower, Adrien, and when spring comes she makes a good start. Although the locals are suspicious they accept the young, dynamic outsider free of the petty local rivalries that set family against family in these close knit rural communities. But her ideal life turns out to be more difficult than she had anticipated.
