In the future, life is literally a pile of feces. With Earth's resources completely depleted, only human waste is left as a fuel source. Diaper gangs and black markets vie for control of "Juicybars," highly addictive fruit bars given as compensation for defecation. In this new landscape of limited resources, the anti-heros of Aachi and Ssipak battle against the Diaper Gangs for control over the "Juicybar" supply. Highlighting the originality in story and technical ability found in Korean animation, "Aachi and Ssipak" presents a fresh and original take on the animated feature.
