Synopsis

Ruthless dictator Admiral General Omar Aladeen rules the oil-rich North African nation of Wadiya, beheading anyone who opposes him. Aladeen is despised by all, including the country's rightful heir to power, Tamir, who tries to assassinate him, then plots his destruction by luring him to New York where he is replaced by body double Efawadh. But the Supreme Leader begins to find his place within the capitalist system.
