Don Anselmo Proharán es un anciano totalmente decidido a adquirir un cochecito de inválido con motor, igual que el que tiene su amigo Lucas y otros compañeros de su edad. Pese a la oposición de toda su familia, Don Anselmo no desiste de su capricho, incluso si para conseguirlo se ve obligado a vender las joyas de la familia. Cuando su hijo Carlos se entera, le obliga a devolverlo. En venganza, Don Anselmo toma la decisión de envenenar a su familia. Cuando intenta huir en su cochecito, sin embargo, es finalmente detenido por la Guardia Civil. La versión inicial de la película, daba claramente a entender que Don Anselmo cumplía sus fúnebres propósitos, pero al final se optó por una versión más edulcorada en la que implícitamente se veía que el decidido anciano no ejecutaba su plan y la familia seguía viva.

Don Anselmo, is a retired seventy year old man man, who lives with his son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter. Don Anselmo enjoys spending his free time with his friends who, unlike him, are disabled. They go out, drive around in their road-adapted, motorized wheelchairs and even take part in races. Due to his optimal health, Don Anselmo often feels left out and soon asks his son to buy him a motorized wheelchair. After his son’s refusal to fund such an unnecessary expenditure, Don Anselmo carries out several stratagems to have his own chair – whatever the cost.
