It’s 1967 and a former Nazi is hiding out in South America holding a damaging list of World War II French collaborators. There is only one man France can trust to track down the nefarious Professor Von Zimmel: secret agent Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath, codename OSS 117. Slightly side-tracked by Red Chinese henchmen who pursue him from Europe to Brazil, suave Oscar-winner Jean Dujardin stars as the comic spy who succeeds in spite of himself. And once he’s in Rio, he discovers he’s not the only one looking for Von Zimmel; Mossad agents want to take the Nazi back to Israel to stand trial. De la Bath finds himself sparring with and romancing a beautiful Israeli Army Officer as they team up to hunt down Von Zimmel. This spy spoof takes full advantage of retro-chic and all the charm of a Gaelic Bond. Along with the evening’s screening of this sequel to Cairo, Nest of Spies, enjoy popcorn and sparkling French soda almost as bubbly as Agent 117 himself!
