Synopsis:

Maybe the best thing to come out of Scandinavia during the hippie years was, in fact, the story of a radical libertarian and a hedonist capitalist. Their friendship, forged by being outsiders in a conformist country, took them through years of adulation and success, with slight detours into the welcoming arms of vilification and imprisonment. A joyride through taxation, mass travel, hookers and politics. Not feeling too constrained by historical facts, director Christoffer Boe's story of Simon Spies and Mogens Glistrup covers just a few of their decades in a tale of warmth and humour, defiance and eccentricity.

It all started at a frat-house reunion in 1965. Simon Spies, a travel agency owner with a serious satyriasis complex, is impressed by comrade Mogen Glistrup's barristerial brilliance. They form an unlikely alliance, concocting a plan to overtake a greedy airline based on Glistrup's 'The Emperor Has No Clothes' theory. When successful, they set out to revolutionize all of Denmark. Spies (Pilou Asbaek) wants to make airline travel (including jaunts to Majorca) affordable for everyone, not just the privileged class. Glistrup (Nicolas Bro) believes paying taxes is immoral and publicly crusades for tax evasion, running for office and forming his own 'Progress Party.' The two continue harmoniously throughout Simon's marketing schemes-there's a promotion on live TV where he has sex with numerous women to see who will be his girlfriend for the year-and his drug-induced sabbatical, including a showdown in which he awes a wild gorilla with his erect phallus. His megalomania about the ruling class making laws, then subverting them when they want to, turns out to be their undoing when he becomes what he set out to destroy.
