The year is 50 B.C., and Roman troops have conquered a path through Gaul to reach the English Channel. However, a tiny fortified village in Gaul continues to resist the Roman occupation with the help of a magic potion which turns the odd-ball burghers into unbeatable warriors. When the Romans capture the head Druid, hoping to discover the secret of the magic potion, Asterix and Obelix must go to his rescue. (official distributor synopsis)
