After getting divorced from his wife, Ruth (Kettle), Jack Foster (Richardson) wishes to secure the funds to purchase the London art gallery where he currently works but which will be sold by his in-laws following the divorce.

Upon traveling to Italy, Jack and Robert find the estate in a state of disrepair far beyond what they had imagined.
