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, in Helsinki. So get ready for a hilarious wheelchair road movie.

Epic film. Dark, crazy, real, real-life. **Hilarious.** It helps to speak French since it's hard to find a version with good subtitles. That bar scene is too funny but hard to follow if you don't ask your friendly neighbourhood frog what's going on. It's best to go into it knowing absolutely nothing and staying until the very end. What a ride, it's really worth it. ;)
