NADA DE TODO EST

Whilst a mother drives with her daughter through the wealthy suburbs of her home city, eyeing the houses of the rich, she accidentally drives her car into a beautiful flower patch inside the front yard of a mansion, bogging their car down. The daughter needs to provide the solution, before her mother’s visceral fascination with the house and its owner drives them both to a point of no return.
