A Place to Be

LOGLINE:
Four seasons. Three gardeners. One plot of land. A story about how nature brings even the most different people back to common ground and their allotment.
SHORT SYNOPSIS:

Over the course of a year, this four-episode miniseries follows Daniel, Sophie and a spirited group of amateur gardeners who come to the allotments for the solace of soil—and find an unexpected community. As they share techniques, celebrate harvests and customise eccentric garden sheds, we watch their friendships grow alongside tomatoes, apples and even a cheeky batch of illicit homemade wine.

But the plot thickens: crop thefts, missing tools and petty allotment crimes turn the garden into a small Wild West where everyone must fend for themselves—with the help of their green‑fingered neighbours. Intimate, funny and occasionally fierce, the series reveals the private escape worlds and resilient bonds that bloom beneath the sun.
