Natale (Giorgio Listuzzi) and Luisa (Gabriella Pallotti) marry and move in with Natale's family. The young couple are soon at each others' throats when they're unable to get any privacy. Realizing they need their own house but lacking money, they decide to build a house for themselves on unclaimed land.
