Summary:
"A nation called out in its time of need. Albert Brooks answered. Yes, he would venture into India and Pakistan on a top assignment for the USA. Yes, he would see if
comedy
could achieve what diplomacy and power has not - make the region's 300-million Muslims like us. And, yes, he ignites a war in the process. Academy Award® nominee Brooks writes and directs this observant and slyly hilarious culture clash. Is laughter the best medicine for an ailing
world
? Find out as Brooks pokes fun at his own preconceived notions in events ranging from a fish-out-of-Ganges standup gig to a meeting with Al-Jazeera honchos to a blindfolded trip into the unknown territory of... Pakistani comedians. Want
comedy
? Look no further."--Container.
