In the waning days of WWI, a British soldier arrives in the French town of Marville to disarm a German bomb, only to find the town deserted except for asylum inmates who've taken over. Mistaken for royalty, he navigates the surreal new hierarchy in a poignant comedy that contrasts the innocuous quirks of the asylum's residents with the brutal madness of war, highlighting the absurdity of conflict.
