Quick Synopsis
During World War II, a U.S. Army Air Forces pilot stationed on a Mediterranean island tries to avoid dangerous combat missions by claiming he is insane. However, military regulations create a paradox: if he requests to be excused for insanity, it shows he is sane enough to continue flying, trapping him in a no-win situation known as the "Catch-22."
Detailed Synopsis of Catch-22
A WWII military pilot makes a valiant effort to be certified insane in order to be excused from flying missions. But there's a catch.
