An uptight corporate couple, despondent their once spontaneous relationship has become joyless in the single-minded pursuit of starting a family, attempt to save their marriage by impulsively buying a run-down ski resort in rural Tasmania.

Very cool, gives me a “We Bought a Zoo” vibe – here are my thoughts.

  • “despondent their once spontaneous relationship has become joyless in the single-minded pursuit of starting a family” I had to re-read this a couple of times to get it.
  • From an American standpoint, you do not need to add “rural” when referring to Tasmania – it is already baked in the name ?.

Questions:
1. Are they newlyweds?
2. What are their professions?
3. What are the reasons why they cannot start a family?
4. Where were they located when purchasing the resort?

My current take:
An XXX power-couple XXX impulse buys a run-down Tasmanian ski resort in hopes of rebuilding their joyless marriage XXX.
