Tá sráidbhaile san Easpáinn ag cur i gcoinne na Rómhánach, dála bhaile Asterix. Déanann Caesar giall de Nono, mac an taoisigh Peildeadó el Galacticó. Botún ab ea é, áfach, an buachaill a chur chun na Gaille. Nuair a chloiseann Asterix agus a chairde faoin ngiall, tá rún acu é a tharrtháil agus é a thabhairt leo ar ais chun na hEaspáinne. Ní haon saoire san Easpáinn dóibh é, áfach.
A village in Spain is holding out against the Romans, just like Asterix and his tribe. But when Caesar takes Nono, the son of chief Peildeadó el Galacticó, hostage, he makes one crucial mistake - he sends the boy to Gaul. When Asterix and his friends hear about this, they're set on rescuing Nono, and taking him back home. But it's no holiday for Asterix.
