In Italy an old female billionaire has created a multinational company called Financial Youth Foundation, which has taken seven prodigies children who work with new computers. The purpose of the foundation is to restore youth to old with artificial products. The gardener of the villa of the old billionaire, Furio, discovers that this effect of youth, apparently beneficial, is a plan to exploit people with technology. So Furio is opposed to this system, so that the seven children and the younger generation can savor the beauty of nature, fighting the false and malicious technology.
