Synopsis: A heartwarming comedy about an 11-year old cycling fan, Freddy, son of a butcher in an idyllic village in nowhereland. Freddy's isolated life is disrupted when the first supermarket opens its doors in the village. As their opening event the supermarket organises a bicycle race; the winner of the race will meet Eddy Merckx, a Tour de France champion who just happens to be Freddy's hero. Freddy's father, a fierce opponent of the supermarket, doesn't want to hear anything about the race. Freddy races nonetheless. By participating, a new world opens up - not only for Freddy but also for the people around him.
