Real-life adaptation based on a variety of Asterix comic books. Asterix and Obelix live in a village that withstands the attacks of the Roman empire, because their druid Panoramix knows a magic potion that makes whoever drinks it invincible. The evil Roman centurion Detritus (Oscar winner Roberto Benigni) has devised up a plan to conquer the village and kidnap the druid, so that he can not only defeat the Gaul village, but also dethrone Julius Caesar.
