Description 1 online resource (1 video file (106 min.)) : sound, color Summary The British Prime Minister and the U.S. President infer that they want to embark on a war in the Middle East. Simon Foster, the British Minister for International Development states, off the cuff, in a radio interview that 'war is unforeseeable.' He later tries to recant his statement to news reporters with another statement. Both remarks start a series of manoeuvrings on both sides by both the pro- and anti-war factions in both governments. U.S. Assistant Secretary for Diplomacy Karen Clarke and U.S. Lieutenant General George Miller lead the anti-war faction, against chief warmonger Linton Barwick. Each principle with their staff, some of whom do not agree with their political master, will do whatever he or she needs to to achieve the desired end goal. This includes having fake meetings, having fake committees, spinning information, leaking information and documents, and doctoring documents. These manoeuvrings are most important in the lead up to the UN vote on the issue Notes Originally distributed as a motion picture by Alliance Films, 2009 Credits Director of photography, Jamie Carney ; editors, Billy Sneddon, Ant Boys ; music, Adem Ilhan Cast Peter Capaldi, Tom Hollander, Gina McKee, James Gandolfini, Chris Addison Notes MPAA rating: Not rated Subject Communication -- Political aspects -- United States -- Drama Communication -- Political aspects -- Great Britain -- Drama Miscommunication -- Great Britain -- Drama Diplomacy -- Drama Communication -- Political aspects Diplomacy Miscommunication Politics and government SUBJECT Great Britain -- Politics and government -- 2007- -- Drama United States -- Politics and government -- 2001-2009 -- Drama Subject Great Britain United States Genre/Form Comedy films Drama Feature films Fiction films Internet videos Satirical films Satirical films.
