Aaltra Overview

Ben and Gus, one a farmer and the other a commuter, are neighbours in a small Belgian village, but they cannot stand each other. In addition, both are unhappy with their lives. A coincidence leads to a fight and an accident on an agricultural machine. In the hospital, they both turn out to be paralysed from the waist down and have to spend the rest of their lives in wheelchairs. They reject the possibility of suicide and, instead, undertake a strange journey to Finland, to find the manufacturer of the agricultural equipment that caused their handicap. During their journey, the relationship between the two fighting cocks and their view of life changes.
