American-style democracy and capitalism come to the sleepy village of Tobiki in this uplifting comedy of cultural conflict set on Okinawa at the end of World War II. The hapless Captain Fisby, with the help of his local interpreter, Sakini, is implementing the U.S. Army's Plan B, which includes establishing a Women's League for Democratic Action and building a pentagon-shaped schoolhouse where the children will learn English. When Fisby mistakenly accepts a gift of souvenirs in the form of two geishas, life in the village and his plans for it spin out of control. The vainglorious area commander, Colonel Wainwright Purdy III, sends a spy to Tobiki to discover what is going on.
