Jack and Jill. Tuttle and Buttle.
Sam Lowry works a humdrum job in a totalitarian regime overrun by incompetent bureaucrats. He has dreams of a beautiful woman floating in silk inside a cage as he an angel with Icarus wings flies up to rescue her, never quite able to reach her.
His mother wants him to be more ambitious. His mother with the rubber facelift.
The Ministry never makes an error. Except when they do. They mistake Buttle for Tuttle, break into his home, kidnap him, torture him, and kill him. Oops. His wife grieves.
Sam Lowry decides to deliver Buttle's refund check to his widow.
Sam is promoted to Information Retrieval. Which means torture. He takes advantage of his new position to find that woman he has been dreaming about. He finds her.
And they all live happily ever after!
Or, maybe, actually, they do not.
Maybe it is all in his head.
Maybe he has finally lost it.
Lost her.
Lost everything.
At least he has the chair.
And the song.
As twilight beams the sky above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return I will
To old Brazil.
