In the Loop

A British politician's gaffe about an upcoming war in the Middle East inadvertently puts him on a collision course with the American president and the UN. As politicians and their staff scramble to manage the crisis, a web of incompetence, ambition, and absurd bureaucracy unfolds. The film follows their chaotic attempts to navigate the political minefield, often making things worse with every step.
