Bob Hoskins (Who Framed Roger Rabbit) stars as Arnie, a lovable Cockney rogue who wants to move up in the fledgling client-film industry. Prowling for potential investors, he finds hypercritical Maud and gets more than he bargained for. While keeping creditors at bay, squabbling actors on task, and an egotistical director under budget, Arnie and Maud try to build a business based on make-believe.
