A frenetic Cold War farce that uses the Berlin divide and capitalist-communist tensions as backdrop for slapstick chaos and romantic entanglement.

In Cold War-era West Berlin, American Coca-Cola executive C.R. 'Mac' MacNamara is tasked with playing babysitter to his boss' spoiled 17-year-old daughter Scarlett, who proves more difficult than anticipated when she reveals that she is pregnant by a Communist.
