Directed by Dušan Makavejev

Overview

An eccentric marketing guru visits a Coca-Cola subsidiary in Australia to try and increase market penetration. He finds zero penetration in a valley owned by an old man who makes his own soft drinks, and visits the valley to see why. After “the Kid’s” persistence is tested he’s given a tour of the man’s plant, and they begin talking of a joint venture. Things get more complicated when the Coca-Cola man begins falling in love with his temporary secretary, who seems to have connections to the valley.

Viewing Notes

Another impulse grab off the shelf at the library. Sold by the story and Eric Roberts. Not a bad little fish out of water tale. Greta Scacchi is super sexy and cute in this.
