At first she is not interested, but after becoming depressed in her gloomy apartment she decides to go. While on the tour she happens upon a notice of sale for an old Italian villa, which she eventually ends up buying. During the course of the remodeling of the villa, her life undergoes a little remodeling as well as she comes to terms with what has happened.
