„Tulipani: Love, Honour, and a Bicycle“ tells the story of a romantic Dutch farmer who, after losing his farm during the floods of 1953, is determined to never have wet socks again as he cycles to the sizzling hot south of Italy to start a new life.

Due to his fairylike and miraculous tulip trade, his passionate love-life and his turbulent scuffles with the dubious local business practices, he becomes a living legend – to then suddenly disappear. Thirty years later the young Canadian woman Anna discovers what truly happened.

„Bursting with colour and romance and teeming with charming performances – including one from Oscar nominee Giancarlo Giannini as an exceedingly patient detective – „Tulipani: Love, Honour and a Bicycle“ is a story about travelling far to know who you are, and about the joys and consolations of storytelling itself“.
