An unexpected friendship develops between a 10-year-old and the owner of a struggling frog farm. ZIO ZIO is a mischievous kid forced to grow up amidst her parents’ separation and passes her time on the streets. When her antics land her into trouble, she finds herself spending her time in a floundering frog farm run by LENA, a tough middle-aged woman with secrets of her own. As their connection deepens, Zio Zio realises that she may never get the kind of love she wants from her mother. But for the first time, she feels seen by Lena for the child that she is supposed to be. Though eventually, the frog farm comes to an inevitable end, and so does ZIo Zio and Lena’s time together.
