In the near future, in a world of loneliness, artificial intelligence, and overwhelming choice, Maria — a successful, vibrant, and independent woman — grows tired of her fruitless search for “the one.” One particularly lonely evening, after a few glasses of wine, she stumbles upon an ad for a new biotech product: a man you can grow… from a pot. Not taking it seriously, she orders a “partner-in-a-box.” But the joke turns real — and soon, a man begins to sprout in her apartment. What follows is not just the perfect man, but a wild and tender adventure filled with fiery emotions, hopes for a dream future, and questions: What is love? Can it be manufactured? Do real relationships even exist anymore? Succulent Love is an absurdist comedy with a tender heart, where humor blooms through loneliness, and hope blossoms in the most unexpected places.
