It’s the 1980s in Thatcher’s Britain. Two friends decide to go on a coach trip to the Soviet Union to see what life is really like on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Thomas is an inhibited civil servant, warned by his superiors that he could be a victim of a honey trap by a Russian blonde and desperate to see if he can be seduced. John is a journalist, who wants to set the record straight during the journey with former in-laws in Warsaw of a disastrous marriage to a Polish woman. But the trip offers characters and events on the way that confound their expectations.
