A young farmer, Onion purchases the only still green and unused plot of ground left in Paradise City to grow onions. The rest of the territory has forcefully become the property of the oil company owned by Petrus Lamb. Just as he had removed the previous owner, Foster, who had refused to give him the land, Lamb now unleashes his minions against Onion, who, throughout all of Paradise City, can only count on the help of an old man a brave journalist and the two little children, Caligula and Nero, of the poor Foster.
One of the worst attempts at a comedy. PERIOD
