Skip it. While the premise has whimsical charm, a romance-fantasy-comedy about a woman marrying a wicker man sounds like it's trying too hard to be quirky without the execution or buzz to back it up. Unless you're specifically hunting for obscure indie oddities, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

On the outskirts of a village by the sea, lives a Fisherwoman; smelly, single and perpetually ridiculed. One day, fed up with her stuffy, small-minded neighbours, she commissions herself a husband to be made from wicker. In an otherwise conservative town, this unconventional romance sparks outrage, jealousy and chaos.
