Jason Biggs stars in this black comedy set in 1979, about a soldier mistakenly posted to an Arctic military base.
Rudy Spruance is lost. He has been left in the middle-of-nowhere among the snowy wastelands of the Arctic. No one comes except a swarm of blood-thirsty mosquitoes. As we awakens in an army hospital that doesn't officially exist Rudy understands what it is to be on the sharp end of a 'small clerical error.' ""You'll want to scratch "" a nurse tells him when he come round. Rudy enlists in order to escape a little prison time for burglary. His fellow soldiers are a right bunch of rag-tag misfits: there's Lavone a wannabe beat-poet; the sadistic Sergeant Genteen; and Petri the base dealer who thinks that sci-fi movies are the pinnacle of art; finally there's the base commander Colonel Woolwrap who thinks that Rudy was much like him when he was a young man. However Rudy doesn't see himself under the tutelage of Woolwrap or anyone else's for that matter! But then Rudy meets Sergeant Irene Teale - beautiful intelligent and most importantly sane. Unfortunately she's also Woolwrap's girlfriend...
