In the heart of the 1960s, amidst the Vietnam War, a New Yorker with a strong sense of loyalty and friendship decides to undertake an incredible feat. John “Chickie” Donohue, a charismatic young man and beer lover, feels he must do something for his friends who are fighting on the front lines. Motivated by the spirit of the times and camaraderie, Chickie plans an epic journey: to cross the ocean and bring beers from his local bar to the soldiers in Vietnam. His idea is as challenging as it is crazy, but his determination is even stronger.
With a carefree spirit and a bag full of cans, Chickie embarks on a journey that not only confronts him with the harsh realities of war but also tests his beliefs and worldview. Along the way, he encounters various personalities, faces unexpected situations, and, above all, discovers the true nature of sacrifice and bravery.
The journey becomes a personal odyssey that transcends the simple delivery of beer, leaving Chickie questioning the subtle yet profound connection between friendship, patriotism, and the cost of war. With touches of humor and emotional moments, the film invites us to reflect on how small actions can have a monumental impact on the lives of those we are willing to help. A story of courage, friendship, and, of course, beer!
