"Twee Amerikaanse mannen die in Barcelona werken, proberen elkaar te overtroeven in het versieren van vrouwen."
"A conservative American businessman living in 1980s Barcelona is joined by his obnoxious cousin, a naval officer. As they compete for women, the two rivals find themselves each embroiled in a culture where anti-American violence is on the rise."@en
"Ted Boynton is an American businessman looking for love. His cousin, Fred, is out for lust. Together, they launch an all-out attack to find the girl of their dreams in the city of Barcelona."@en
"In Barcelona, Spain during the last decade of the Cold War, Ted Boynton, the Spanish representative for a Chicago electric engine firm, plays host to his cousin, Fred Boynton, a lieutenant in the Navy. Ted is earnest and ambitious, but not a typical American salesman. Fred is an advance man for the Sixth Fleet's upcoming shore leave. They are smart but somewhat naive white-collar workers, who wear suits, are very serious about themselves, and who always try to sound impressive--in a senior seminar manner. The film questions the adequacy of overly civilized behavior in tough, real-world situations, the values that inform it, and the struggle to determine what those values are. In the end, this is a portrait of two capable, earnest young men destined for an imminent move into the ill-defined purgatory of middle management."
"Barcelona follows the romantic and political misadventures of two American cousins in post-Franco Spain. The time is 'the last decade of the Cold War' - discos are still in, NATO and Americans are out. In the midst of a wave of terrorist incidents directed at Americans, Fred's incautious behavior - and the conspiracy mongering of a local journalist and rival - cast the threat of violence across the cousin's lives."@en
