Sinopsis: Frank and Ava Gardner live out in the country, amongst the kookaburras and cattle. They do menial jobs, but are true romantics at heart. Moving between fact and fiction, Hollywood and Spain, past and present, Chainsaw is a chain of stories about romance and celebrity, machismo and chainsaws, fantasy and death. And how the natural world endures.
