As Erasmus says: “You are not born a man, you become one”. One may add that to become more human, you have to side with the wounded, the broken ones.
Our characters take an astounding road-trip, as funny as it is overwhelming. A film that inspires and gives courage.

    • Synopsis
    • Louis is the director of a funeral home. Undertaker they
      call it. A sworn bachelor at 58 years old, he devotes
      himself entirely to his job and cannot bring himself to
      retire.
      Igor is 40 years old, a sharp mind stuck in a disabled
      body. Cerebral palsy they call it. Fond of philosophy, his
      travel companions are Socrates, Spinoza and Nietzsche.

      He keeps himself well away from the world and knows
      nothing or very little about friendship, sexuality, and
      real encounters.
      In a coincidence that only happens in real life, the paths of Louis and Igor cross. They embark on a funeral car for an unconventional road-trip that will teach them to see beyond their own issues and rethink their lives.
