La Ferdinanda is a Medici villa in Tuscany near Pisa, inhabited by a group of people who have nothing in common, apart from being slightly crazy. A doctor who experiments with peacock eggs, a nurse with an inclination towards handstands on every occasion, a rich countess, and many more.

Besides, the villa is being let for wedding parties and other festive occasions. One of these parties provides the background for the unfolding of numerous turbulent and even violent scenes.
