Italiano Valerie, una ragazza iellatissima, scompare mentre si trova in ferie nel Messico. Per cercarla il ricco padre assume un abile investigatore (Glover), ma anche un poveretto perseguitato, al pari della figlia, da una sfortuna incredibile (Short). È infatti sfruttando questa insolita affinità che la ragazza viene ritrovata. A Martin Short piace "riadattare" i personaggi interpretati dal francese Pierre Richard: è già successo con Due fuggitivi e mezzo (di cui In fuga per tre era il rifacimento) e ora è il turno di La capra.

Pусский Бесталанный бухгалтер Проктор страдает от хронического невезения. Этот молодой человек не ищет неприятностей, он их притягивает, как магнит. Если ему дать на выбор 50 стульев, один из которых сломан, то он обязательно сядет на сломанный стул. Корпоративный психолог находит практическое применение феноменальным способностям Проктора: он предлагает отправить злополучного бухгалтера на поиски пропавшей без вести дочери миллионера. Красавица Валери затерялась где-то в Мексике. Все попытки найти ее не увенчались успехом. Девушка, как и Проктор, отличалась катастрофической невезучестью. Отец Валери, измученный бесплодными поисками дочери, соглашается сделать еще одну попытку. Детектив Кампанелла получает задание сопровождать человека-беду в путешествии — это очень опасное поручение, ведь рядом с Проктором и спичку страшно зажечь.

Over thirty years ago, a new wave of stand-ups spearheaded the Alternative Comedy movement, marking themselves out as different from the safe television turns, the Oxbridge satirists, and the racist and sexist Working Men’s Club comics of the time.
THE ALTERNATIVE COMEDY EXPERIENCE captures that same schism happening again. An advance raiding party of modern day Alternative Comedians offering material too clever, thoughtful, radical, satirical, strange, or downright stupid to make it onto the stand-up outlets of contemporary television.
THE ALTERNATIVE COMEDY EXPERIENCE was filmed in front of a real comedy club audience during a full week of packed houses at THE STAND COMEDY CLUB, EDINBURGH, faithfully capturing the unique atmosphere at one of the UK’s favourite and longest established live comedy clubs.
With its fast-moving distinctive visual style and unique cast THE ALTERNATIVE COMEDY EXPERIENCE is original, unpredictable, and unlike any other live stand-up show on our screens.
THE ALTERNATIVE COMEDY EXPERIENCE celebrates the past, the present and the future of the UK comedy circuit and the craft of stand-up comedy at its most original.
Renew your faith in this vital live art form.
