An unlikely friendship grows down on the allotment.

With Frank’s family so far away, he passes the time on his beloved allotment. When the plot next door becomes vacant, he really looks forward to meeting his new neighbour. Until she arrives that is! Isabella and her cheeky chickens soon disrupt Frank’s peaceful routine. Things come to a head when Frank discovers Isabella in his shed, but he misunderstands the reason why.

Staged on lovingly recreated life-size allotments, this charming tale about two lonely people, an old man and a young Ukrainian woman, reminds us that with the breaking down of barriers, true friendship can grow in the most unlikely of places.
