Aalst, 1888. Na een conflict met bisschop Stillemans keert priester Adolf Daens terug naar zijn geboortestad. Hij neemt zijn intrek bij zijn broer Pieter, uitgever van het 'Land Van Aelst'. De textielindustrie in Aalst staat onder grote druk van de buitenlandse concurrentie.
Nee, helaas is Daens nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
