Always with an eye on growth opportunities, Fidelis found the "Perfect War" when the US invaded Iraq: it wasn't about selling a dozen cars, or even a hundred - it was a thousand car war where security would become the ultimate product. Riding along as he drives from Syria through Iraq days after the fall of Baghdad, filmmakers Petra Epperlein and Michael Tucker capture the eccentric wit and wisdom of Cloer as he makes house calls in a war zone and allows potential clients to open fire on his own car in order to make a sale. Spanning several years of escalating conflict - and product development - this might be the most unlikely story of war, or a car salesman, ever captured on film.
