Britannia Hospital (1982)

In the heart of chaos stands Britannia Hospital, a warped reflection of British society's ills. Mick Travis, portrayed by Malcolm McDowell, is a seasoned reporter poised to craft a gripping documentary about this peculiar institution. The hospital buzzes with anticipation, awaiting the arrival of Queen Elizabeth I, who is set to inaugurate a new wing dedicated to progressive, yet disturbingly ominous scientific explorations helmed by the enigmatic Professor Millar, played by Graham Crowden. However, the hospital's staff, from the indifferent painters to the rebellious cooks, add to the mounting tension. Adding fuel to the fire is an African despot, chillingly reminiscent of Idi Amin Dada Oumee, whose presence in the hospital spurs a protest demanding his expulsion and trial. As the day unfolds, Queen Elizabeth's visit and Travis's pursuit of truth spiral into a surreal nightmare, painting a vivid tableau of the pandemonium within Britannia Hospital.

Britannia Hospital is a comedy movie featuring Graham Crowden and directed by Lindsay Anderson.
