In a small town in Wisconsin, Lars, a young introvert with a peculiar nature, lives a rather solitary life, marked by routine and a lack of connection with his surroundings. After the death of his father, Lars feels more isolated than ever. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when he introduces his new "girlfriend," Bianca, a life-sized doll he ordered online. Although it seems like a strange whim, Lars genuinely feels in love and begins to interact with her as if she were a real person.
As the situation progresses, the townspeople, instead of ridiculing him, decide to support him, embracing Bianca as part of the community. This leads to funny and heartwarming situations as Lars navigates his relationship with the doll and begins to open up to the people around him. Lars's connection with Bianca allows him to confront his emotional issues and deep fears about love, loss, and forming real bonds.
With the help of his doctor and a few loyal friends, Lars starts to take steps toward self-growth and to cope with his feelings of loneliness. The story becomes a celebration of friendship, acceptance, and the healing power of community, showing that sometimes our most unusual connections can lead us on a journey of self-discovery and love.
