ACTORS: Jason Biggs, Natascha McElhone, Jeremy Northam
US Army Corporal Rudy Spruance arrives at a remote American military base at Qangattarsa, Greenland – located somewhere above the Arctic Circle – just before the summer solstice in June, 1979. Beyond a two day out of the year environmental occurrence which negatively affects his arrival, his reaction to which he will probably be forever best remembered by his fellow GI’s at Qangattarsa, Rudy faces two problems: he is not supposed to be there, his next assignment which was supposed to be at a base in Hawaii; and he cannot convince anyone at Qangattarsa that he is not Corporal Martin Pederson, who is the GI assigned to this posting.
Title actor Jason Biggs and director Saul Metzstein both won awards for the film at the Taormina International Film Festival.
