"I do hope the Americans are kind to them."
The small country of Grand Fenwick is in crisis, it has run out of money. To drum up some cash they decide to declare war on the USA, with the aim of losing as quickly as possible and then reap the reparations that the US would inevitably pour into the country. There exists only two problems, the fact that the USA think the declaration of war is a joke, and the second is Tully Bascombe (Peter Sellars) the leader of the war party, who manages to actually win due to his capture of the newly developed Q bomb, its inventor (David Kossoff) and his daughter (Jean Seberg)!
A tour de force by Peter Sellars, who features in multiple roles in this cold war satire.
