Mario & Maria
Two young people, Mario and Maria, who spent all their time drifting through life with no commitment to anything or anyone other than themselves, are finally forced to face reality when the magical gourd they decide to handle in a strange and sinister-looking antique store surprises them with startling consequences that places them in deep ocean until they learn strong merit and true love complete. Becoming separated, their underwater trip then takes them around the world, placing them in many challenging situations from which they learn true love and the fact that care, consideration, and commitment—to more than just themselves—are of major importance for happiness and success in one's life. Finally, their deep-sea travel results in their arriving back to where their trip began and returning to their lives as they knew them before visiting the strange and sinister-looking antique store.
