Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In this pitch black comedy the rivalry between two neighbors escalates into an all out war. Through a maintenance error on a tractor they both end up, paralyzed, in a wheelchair. It seems they are doomed to stay together. They no longer focus their rage on each other but on the manufacturer of the tractor, located far up north in rural Finland. So get ready for a hilarious wheelchair road movie. Written by Cult Films |
