A hilarious, extravagant, yet uncannily true-to-life adventure.
Vladimir Girshkin - 25-year-old Russian immigrant and lowly clerk at the bureaucratic Emma Lazarus Immigrant Absorption Society - is about to have his first break.
When the unlikely figure of a wealthy but psychotic old Russian war hero appears and introduces Vladimir to his best friend, who just happens to be a small electric fan, Vladimir has little inkling that he is about to embark on an adventure of unrelenting lunacy - one that overturns his assumptions about what it means to be an immigrant in America.
