Plot

Carpenter Bruno built his dream home on his father-in-law's property. When daughter Lydia dies, apparently without will access, Bruno is evicted, moving into his dad's shed. Maria (Parker Posey) purchases the home and wants remodeling done, to which contractor Bruno grudgingly changes the decor. An uninterested Bruno dates Marie, and after that romance follows. Whilst removing the kitchen's drawer, he finds a false bottom with wife's will in it. During the inauguration party, lawyer and sheriff interrupt it and evict Marie. Bruno returns home, and Marie packs, leaving the house after a sentimental talk with Bruno.
