Adaptation of Joseph Heller's classic anti-war novel, set in 1944 on a US Air Force base. As the number of bombing raids increases, a captain finds his life becoming ever more bizarre and horrific. He decides to have himself declared mentally unfit to fly but soon learns that, since no sane person would want to fly, anyone making such a request must be sane - and that the logic of this deadly Catch-22 operates at every turn.
