I Don't Understand You

Dom and Cole, a prosperous gay couple residing in Los Angeles, are gearing up for a milestone celebration as they mark their 10th anniversary with an exciting trip to the picturesque landscapes of Italy. This vacation takes a thrilling turn as they receive a much-anticipated call from Candace, who is expecting a child that Dom and Cole are contemplating adopting.

Their journey ventures them to meet with Daniele, a long-time friend of Dom’s father, who has graciously arranged a special dinner for their anniversary at a charming farm restaurant in Orvieto, which, interestingly, has been closed for several months. The cook is more than eager to reopen the establishment just for them. However, the directions they receive are rather vague, leading them into the rural heart of Italy where they soon find themselves navigating through the unwelcoming landscape and ultimately getting lost.

During their adventure, a heavy downpour causes their rental car to become lodged in the mud, turning their delightful trip into a challenging ordeal. Just when they start to feel a hint of panic, a grumpy farmer appears, brandishing a shotgun, eliciting a sense of dread in them. To their relief, rather than being a threat, the farmer lends a helping hand. After being courteously assisted, they make their way to the much-anticipated restaurant, where they are greeted with warmth and hospitality by Zia Luciana, the owner.

Upon their arrival, they are treated to a feast of exceptional food, albeit with a comical twist for Cole, a staunch vegetarian, as he is compelled to try a pizza adorned with horse sausage. This blend of unexpected challenges and heartwarming moments makes their anniversary celebration memorable, deepening their bond as they navigate both the joys and trials of their love and future family.
