GARDEN LOVERS looks behind the hedge of couples who have a passion for gardening. The humorous film is a declaration of love to beauty and healing power of their gardens. Beautiful and magical pictures flow into their relationships, conflicts and joys. The garden depicts the many ways in which life can flourish; it gives strength and unites, but it also becomes a meeting place for farewells.
