Description:

The Straight Story: A retired farmer and widower in his 70s, Alvin Straight learns that his distant brother Lyle has suffered a stroke and may not recover. Alvin is determined to make things right with Lyle while he still can, but his brother lives 240 miles away in Wisconsin, while Alvin is stuck in Iowa with no car and no driver’s license. He hits on the idea of making the trip on his old lawnmower, beginning a picturesque and deeply spiritual odyssey.
