Once upon a time, on a dairy farm in a faraway land of fertile green valleys, there lived two lovers—Lucinda and Rob, and their one hundred and seventeen cows.

After Rob proposes, however, Lucinda starts to worry that the sparkle may be fading from their love. When she confides in her best friend Drosophilia, she suggests Lucinda put Rob’s love through a series of tests. Convinced this is the only way to tell if their love is forever, Lucinda returns home and the games begin.

When Lucinda discovers a mystical old Maori woman, and trades Rob’s precious cows for a quilt, their fairytale romance spins out of control. After he fails to recover his livestock and his livelihood, he moves into his friend Bernie’s cold garage. At the same time, Lucinda realizes that, silly games aside, she must get Rob’s cows back before she loses her one true love. Ultimately, she must learn the price of milk before it’s too late.
